The Visiting Student Program supports current high school juniors who wish to pursue part-time undergraduate-level academic work during the summer term outside of a university degree program. Visiting Students may apply to take up to two courses at the same time at LMU. Please note that enrollment as a Visiting Student does not imply admission to candidacy for a degree.
A student who has completed the 11th grade with at least a B+ (3.3) GPA may take summer classes at LMU.
