High School Students

High school students can enroll in LTCC courses through the Dual Enrollment program. Follow the three steps below to apply, get approval, and register.

Step 1: Apply Online

Apply through CCCApply — the shared application system for all California Community Colleges. Create or log in to an account to get started.

Once processed, you'll receive your LTCC student ID by email (7 digits, starting with 06 or 07). Wait until you have your student ID before moving to Step 2.

Step 2: Get High School Counselor Approval

Meet with your high school counselor to discuss course selection and graduation credit eligibility. Most LTCC courses are open to high school students.

Then complete the 9–12 College Placement Form, which collects signatures in this order:

  1. Student
  2. Parent or guardian
  3. High school counselor or administrator

Does your course have a prerequisite? Submit a Prerequisite Clearance Request along with unofficial transcripts to counselor@ltcc.edu. Check prerequisites in the current schedule of classes.

Important: You are not eligible to enroll until you receive an email from Enrollment Services prompting you to register. Approvals will not be accepted after the last business day before the course begins.

New this year: A meeting with an LTCC counselor is no longer required for high school students. For enrollment and form questions, email enrollmentservices@ltcc.edu. You're always welcome to schedule a counselor appointment if you have course-related questions.

Step 3: Register for Classes

After completing Steps 1 and 2, register during your assigned registration window — in person during Open Registration or online through the Self-Service Portal. Check your registration date before you log in.

Special Admission was designed in coordination with the local high school to serve the needs of students within South Lake Tahoe and nearby areas. Students enrolled in grades 9-12 must be recommended by their principal or high school counselor to take advanced scholastic and/or vocational coursework. The recommendation is subject to approval by LTCC's counselors. Consent by a parent or guardian is also required. Some courses may have restrictions based on age, grade level, or assessment standards. As a general rule, no students below grade 9 will be allowed to enroll in college courses.

One way LTCC’s partnership with South Tahoe High School is fundamentally supporting student success is through a program called Dual Enrollment. This free program offers local high school students an opportunity to earn college and high school credits simultaneously. All LTUSD students are welcome to participate in the program, which begins with Healthy Lifestyle Choices during 9th grade.

Dual enrollment is a wonderful opportunity for high school students to get ahead on college credits, fulfill high school graduation requirements, and ultimately save money. All dual enrollment courses take place at South Tahoe High School during the regular scheduled day.

We've already seen success from the Dual Enrollment program and ongoing TRiO program partnerships between LTCC and LTUSD, and LTCC is committed to seeking more opportunities for us to work together to support the educational goals and needs of local youth.
