College Now courses are college level courses taken by high school students at Lincoln Land Community College, taught by LLCC instructors and that provide LLCC credit toward a degree or transfer to other colleges. Students earn high school credit at the same time as college credit for these courses. Students pay regular, in-district tuition and fees, and buy textbooks for these courses.

Information session
LLCC will host an information session on Monday, Oct. 6, 5:30 p.m. in Menard Hall, Room 1162 on the main campus in Springfield. The session is designed for current high school sophomores, juniors and their parents/guardians to learn more about earning college credit while in high school through College Now this spring.
College Now allows students, who are least 16 years old, in good academic standing and from high schools that are partnering with LLCC, to earn college credit by taking morning or afternoon classes at LLCC during their normal school day. Students can check with their high school counselors to find out if College Now is an option for their high school.
At the information sessions, participants will learn what to expect from a college class, get information on tuition and financial options, discover how College Now is different from advanced placement or dual credit courses, find out how to get started and more.
