STEM Bridge
Lake Erie College is now offering a STEM Bridge Program for CCP students to earn credits while completing the courses necessary for admission to science majors or progress towards a math degree. In addition to the majors, students can also have the opportunity to begin earning credit towards one of three minors: Applied Research, GIS, or Applied Technical Skills. They can also participate in extracurricular activities related to college matriculation. In addition to credit-bearing work, CCP students will have a chance to participate in other on-campus activities. Programs available to these students include LEC’s signature Pathway to Empowerment Program, workshops with LEC’s Enrollment Management office about applying to college, and advising and personalized assistance facilitated by LEC’s admissions and career readiness advising. Students are also encouraged to attend information nights with LEC’s partners including institutions with medical programs and regional research labs Students who complete the STEM Bridge program with a 3.0 or higher GPA will be admitted to LEC directly into the science major of their choice and receive their LEC SNSM lab jacket early. Along with admission, they will be eligible for scholarships that will bring out-of-pocket tuition costs to $0-$6,000 depending on need, as identified through LEC’s process. They are also eligible for reserved seats in LEC’s partnership programs.
