About Billing Hours

What is a billing hour?
The cost for attending a course is determined by the course's billing hours, rather than academic credit hours. A billing hour represents an amount of time that a student spends in direct contact with an instructor or with laboratory equipment.

How are billing hours for a course determined?
Several factors are considered in determining the billing hours of a course. The main factor is the number of hours the student is expected to either be in a class or in another "instructional" setting (such as a lab) in a typical week for a full semester course. LCC courses range from one billing hour to more than 10 billing hours per course. The billing system caps the number of billing hours that can be added to a course. For the majority of courses at LCC, the credit hours and the billing hours are the same.
