From the moment a student enrolls until the time he or she graduates, Lewis and Clark’s student service personnel work diligently to transition students on to their next step, whether it be entering the work force, re-entering the work force or transferring on to a four-year school.
“We want to provide the best service possible for our students. They’re the reason we exist, so for us, taking care of the students would be the same way a business tries to take care of its customers. We want to ensure that when students come here they’re getting not only a high quality education that’s going to help them, but also that the service they receive here is good enough that they can focus on the academics while everything else falls into place,” said Kent Scheffel, Vice President of Enrollment Services. “We would like for the entire educational experience to be a positive one for students.”
Although most students are familiar with the services the College offers in the Enrollment Center, such as placement testing, academic and financial aid advising, the College offers numerous others for students to aid them in their voyage to success.
Here are just a few of the Student Services offered at Lewis and Clark:
- Academic Advisement

“No matter what the service is we provide students, we are always looking for feedback so that we can continue to improve our offerings for students,” Scheffel said. “We have established an e-mail address where individuals can submit feedback about how we’re doing.”
