To apply for graduate student loans, you must be registered for a minimum of 4.5 credits per semester, complete the FAFSA, which has a priority deadline of March 1, and submit LVC’s Financial Aid Supplemental Form. Graduate students are considered independent for financial aid purposes, so parental information is not required on the FAFSA. Contact LVC’s Financial Aid Office at finaid@lvc.edu or 717-867-6126 with questions.
You will be billed prior to the start of each term. If your current employer offers you any amount of tuition reimbursement for your graduate program, you are eligible to apply for a deferred payment option. Visit the Business Office to review current tuition and billing information, access deferred billing forms, or make a payment. Contact the Business Office at 717-867-6300 or cashier@lvc.edu with questions regarding tuition or your bill.
You will receive information directly from your Graduate Program Director or Advisor shortly after your acceptance, with information regarding academic advising, course registration, and next steps. If you have any questions regarding the program curriculum or course offerings, you can contact your program director at any time.
Lebanon Valley College uses Canvas as our Learning Management System (LMS). Instructors and students are automatically enrolled in courses through the Registrar’s Office. Students are added to courses two weeks prior to the first day of the course session. Many faculty members use Canvas to post course materials, communicate with students, and offer collaboration tools for group projects. Canvas is the primary system used for online courses. Canvas Support is available through an extensive collection of Canvas Guides and by contacting the LVC Solutions Center.
You can view and purchase the required materials and texts for each course on the LVC bookstore website. Materials are also available via Bishop Library.
LVC student ID cards are not required but are necessary if you want to borrow physical materials from The Bishop Library. ID cards may also be helpful if you plan to attend campus events or use campus facilities. Email the solutions@lvc.edu to request an appointment to get your ID card.
As a graduate student, you will need to register your car with LVC’s Office of Campus Safety if you will be coming to campus for courses. You can learn more about parking and find a link to register your vehicle on the Office of Campus Safety’s site.
