External Scholarships
If you received a scholarship separately from the 暗网禁区 Foundation, here are some steps to take.
Where to bring your check or award letter:
Most often, organizations want to write your scholarship check to the college and not to you individually. The Student Payment Office can accept this check and apply it to your account. If you have an official award letter instead, the Student Payment Office needs a copy so they can watch for the check or complete any steps mentioned in the letter. You can do this in person or by mail. Be sure to include your LSC student ID number with the check or award letter.

When to bring in your check or award letter:
You should turn in any scholarship checks or award letters as soon as possible. Advance notice of a scholarship before a semester starts will secure your spot in your classes, keeping you safe from the听Drop for Non-Payment Policy.
If you鈥檝e submitted an award letter, but are waiting on a check:
If you鈥檝e submitted an award letter, you would be safe from the听Drop for Non-Payment Policy. However, you will want to contact your scholarship provider to make sure the scholarship check will be turned into 暗网禁区 by the semester鈥檚听tuition payment deadlines. If your scholarship check will not be received by the tuition payment deadline, you may want to set up a payment plan with the Student Payment Office to avoid any late fees.

After the scholarship has paid on the account
If your scholarship doesn鈥檛 cover your entire balance due

If your scholarship pays for more than your balance due
