to review the admissions process, or visit the LRC website
(www.laroche.edu) for open house dates and to explore the
various major options.
2) Credit Evaluation:
Arrange a meeting with an admissions counselor to have
an unofficial credit evaluation completed. This will give
you a better idea of how many more credits you will need
to complete the degree for your major. You are also welcome
to mail or fax transcripts for evaluation. FAX number: 412-536-1283
3) Advising: An admissions
counselor will assist you with arranging an appropriate
schedule of classes for your first semester.
4) Financial aid: Financial
aid is conveniently located in the same office, so your
questions can be answered in one visit. A separate appointment
is recommended. Please inform your admissions counselor
to make such arrangements.
5) Registration: You never
have to leave home or work to register once you have completed
your application process. An admissions counselor can
assist you by fax (412) 536-1283 or by phone (412) 536-1262.
6) Official Credit Evaluation: An official credit
evaluation will be forwarded to you within one month after
your admissions file is complete. A complete admission
file includes a completed application, all official transcripts,
course descriptions and any letters of recommendation
required.
7) Career Journey: If
you include a resume, we can submit it to the Career Center.
8) Orientation: Participate
in the orientation at the beginning of each semester either
on campus or on-line (www.laroche.edu) to further assist
with your transition as a new student or obtain your photo
ID, parking permit, computer logon, books, etc.
Services: Once you enroll at LRC, the Office of
Admissions for Graduate and Continuing Education will
continue to be your advisor until the next registration
period when a faculty member will be assigned to you.
The Office of Academic Affairs will send you a letter
indicating your new advisor with his/her contact information.
Requirements:
Placement Exams:
Students who have not yet completed a college-level English
and/or math course are advised to take placement exams
before registering for classes.

participate in a portfolio review with a faculty member.
The review, which will assist in the evaluation and placement
of design credits, is completed after the student is admitted
to the college and prior to registration.

be required to audition with the artistic director of
the program.
