How will students and parents find out about TEC?
There will be informational meetings, announcements at their participating schools and mailers sent to parents and students at home. In addition, information regarding The Early College will be available at http://inghamisd.org and will be updated as new information becomes available.
Students and parents can apply through their local school districts and the application is also available online at http://www.lcc.edu/earlycollege/.
Can students from other counties participate?
Currently, this program is available to the following school districts Dansville, East Lansing, Eaton Rapids, Haslett, Holt, Leslie, Lansing, Mason, Okemos, Waverly, Webberville and Williamston.
Financial support for this program comes from the state student funding allowance. Because of this funding stream, this program is for public school students. Home schooled or private school students would have to enroll in their local district in order to apply.
Students have to be in grade 10 and on track (within one credit) to meet Michigan Merit Curriculum requirements.
Each local school district has a limited number of seats and the seats will be selected through a lottery. This means all applications should be submitted to the local high school, and the high school will submit them to Ingham ISD for processing.
Are there any minimum or maximum income requirements to apply?
