COVID-19 Admissions FAQ

The impacts of COVID-19 have made the college selection process more difficult, but we are here to work with you in the coming months to ensure that you can enroll in your top choice, Lewis & Clark College.

This FAQ is a living document and will be expanded as our plans for the fall come into greater focus.

    Absolutely! This much we know for sure; the college will be in session this fall.

    We are planning for and fully expect that classes will be taught on campus and in person this fall. For more information, please see the statement from Dean Bruce Suttmeier here.

    These are volatile financial times and many families have seen unexpected changes in their financial resources. Our Financial Aid Office is available to work with you in the event of a dramatic shift in your finances.

    Yes. We will continue to honor our current policy.

    Transfer students (or First Year students with college credits): Lewis & Clark will accept transfer credit for eligible college courses completed with a P/CR/S grade from Winter ’20 and Spring ’20 terms ONLY, regardless of your home institution’s policy about what P/CR/S means. Our credit transfer policy can be found here for more details.

    We encourage you to reach out to your admissions counselor if any other aspect of your spring coursework has changed.

    Absolutely not. If you know Lewis & Clark is your top choice, we will be happy to accept your deposit today through your Pioneer Portal. There is no reason to wait! We are here to work with you. If either of our situations change, let’s work together to make your top choice, Lewis & Clark, a reality.
