The average college textbook costs between $100-$150 according to Education Data Initiative. Lakeshore students have saved well over $2.1 million since 2018 thanks to the college offering open educational resources. These include free online textbooks, videos, and other learning tools that reside in the public domain.
Accommodations
Every student has an equal opportunity to participate in all aspects of Lakeshore’s programs, services, and activities. Accommodation Services is an active partner with students, faculty, and staff in creating an accessible learning environment.
