To register for classes at Lone Star College, you’ll need to submit official transcripts from any previously attended institutions. Learn how to send and request transcripts, the available delivery options, and what to expect during the evaluation process. Check your status and track your requests with ease to ensure timely registration and credit evaluation.
To register for classes LSC must have official transcripts from all colleges or universities you have previously attended. Once received, it may take 2-4 weeks for your transcript to be evaluated for appropriate credit. Transcripts are only considered official if they are sent directly from the transferring institution. LSC receives official transcripts in the following ways:
Most Texas institutions send official transcripts electronically via the SPEEDE network which allows faster evaluation. Check with your institution to see if they can send with SPEEDE. Official PDF Transcripts can be emailed directly from the college or university to: Registrar@LoneStar.edu.
Note: The Registrar’s office does not accept unofficial transcripts. Students can use an unofficial transcript to register for classes with their campus advisor at LSC enrolling for the first time only. Before subsequent terms can be registered for, all official transcripts must have been received. https://www.LoneStar.edu/advising.htm
