The Cooke Undergraduate Transfer Scholarship application is now open, with a Jan. 11, 2024 deadline. This is a “highly selective scholarship for the nation’s top community college students seeking to complete their bachelor’s degrees.” Past LCC students have been awarded this prestigious scholarship, which pays up to $55,000 per year.

You are eligible to apply if you have a 3.50+ GPA; have unmet financial need; will have sophomore standing by January 1, 2024; and plan to enroll full-time at a four-year college or university in Fall 2024.

The selection process is rigorous and competitive. Criteria include: high academic ability and achievement, persistence in the face of obstacles, leadership, service to others, and unmet financial need.

Come watch "Paris is Burning" and eat popcorn on Wed., Oct. 11, 12-3 p.m. at the Gender Equity Center (Building 1, Suite 202). "Paris Is Burning" is a landmark 1990 documentary film directed by Jennie Livingston that explores the underground subculture of ballroom dance and performance in the 1980s among New York City's African American, Latino, gay, and transgender communities. The film provides an intimate glimpse into the lives of drag queens, trans women, and gay men of color as they compete in ballroom contests, showcase their talent, and express themselves through fashion and style.

Phi Theta Kappa (PTK) is the only official honor society for two-year colleges, and we have a chapter right here at LCC! With PTK you can build your resume, take part in fantastic projects, attend fun events, and get access to exclusive scholarships. New membership eligibility notices will be sent out over the next couple of weeks, so be sure to check your email!

We understand that there are some unfortunate scams out there masquerading as honor societies. PTK is legitimate. Assistance may be available to those prospective members who would experience difficulty paying the membership fee.
