Other Questions

Check LPC's CCN table (Fall 2025) or talk to a counselor. The updated course list will also be available in the Class Schedule when registering. For Fall 2025, only six courses will have a new title and number.

No. If you completed a course under the old number, it still counts! The new number just makes it easier to track.
