Discover Lakeland's Hispanic Center!

Hispanic students at Lakeland reflect a variety of Spanish-speaking cultures and countries including North, Central and South Americas, as well as Puerto Rico.

At Lakeland, all become joined together to reach one main goal: to get a college education!

If you are a Hispanic student thinking about college, here's why you should start education at Lakeland:

  • You will be guided by a mentor who speaks Spanish and understands your culture.
  • You will learn from college-educated, Hispanic professionals in the Lake County and Cleveland area.
  • We will help you learn about free tutoring and job search assistance.

Lakeland's Hispanic Center helps you get through the easy - and tough - times in college.  You'll have a support system with peers who understand you and are going through similar experiences with being first in their families to come to college and, in most cases, growing up bilingual.

Another reason to go to Lakeland is to not just better yourself, but also your family. A college education will enrich your life, your family and community.

Yes, going to college is a commitment. But the time that it takes for you to get an education will benefit you and your family for a lifetime.

The Hispanic Center also oversees the Hispanic Club, which is the student-driven club that allows you to grow in your leadership and confidence. Contact the Hispanic Center Coordinator today!

 


 

Oliver Richard One of my favorite things about Lakeland is the CCP program, which is a great opportunity to earn college credit so that I'm able to save time and money in the future. It was great that I was able to earn two degrees while still in high school, so I can earn my bachelor's degree in 2 years. Oliver Richard College Credit Plus

Ariana Oroz I loved coming to class to learn about real-life cases that my professors have experienced and the opportunity to go through mock crime scene scenarios. Especially with the recent development of the criminal justice program, I enjoyed "investigating" a "residence", simulating a grave excavation, and lifting fingerprints. It is a bittersweet moment that I will be graduating. Ariana Oroz Criminal Justice
