Laurel Ridge Community College is committed to providing equal access to students and employees with disabilities. As a result of this commitment and in accordance with the state and federal law and guidelines, Laurel Ridge Community College allows the use of service animals for individuals with disabilities.
Textbook purchases and rentals are handled in the campus bookstore. The bookstore will gladly accept all returns and exchanges for items accompanied by a receipt. A photo ID will be required for all returns and exchanges. For more information on the campus bookstore and its return policies, please visit: https://www.bkstr.com/lfccstore/home/en
Financial aid purchases are only possible with a valid student ID number and proper identification. All transactions require the original receipt. The College reserves the right to restrict or limit purchases of certain items or to restrict students from using financial aid in cases of suspected fraud or misuse of funds. All refunds of text materials must be done prior to dropping classes to ensure proper credit to the financial aid account. If you drop your classes first, you will not be able to return your books. If you modify any settings within the student information system within 24 hours prior to purchasing your books, to include adding or dropping classes, the bookstore is unable to utilize your financial aid.
All students are held responsible for the actions of any guests that join them on campus. In cases where children are the guests, the Children on Campus policy applies.
Note: The policy defines children as those 13 years of age and younger.
This policy reads: Young children needing supervision cannot be left unattended on Laurel Ridge Community College premises. The Laurel Ridge Community College staff has no responsibility for protecting such children from the possibility of harming themselves or for insuring they do not disrupt scheduled operations when they are left unattended. Additionally, they cannot be taken into classrooms or laboratories. In short, responsibility for arranging proper care of young children needing supervision rests solely upon those persons responsible for them (e.g.: parents, guardians, brothers or sisters). Violators of this policy may be subject to appropriate administrative review/action. For more information on this policy, please go to www.lfcc.edu/about-lfcc/policies.
