Follow the steps listed below in order to enroll in and prepare for GED/ABSE classes. These steps will help you enroll, fill out any paperwork you may need to submit, and learn how to use technology to participate in online classes.
GED Students: You need to earn a high school credential because you do not have a high school diploma or because you completed high school in another country and your diploma is not recognized in the US. You may also be interested in preparing for college entry.
ABSE Students: You have a high school diploma or GED and you need to develop academic skills in reading, writing, and/or math before entering a college credit program. ABSE may be a good option for you if you do not currently have financial aid, or your financial aid package consists only of loans.

What you need
- An email address you have access to
- Your L Number (if you have one)
Required Form for Students Under 18
If you are under 18: You will need to submit an “Exemption from Compulsory Attendance” from your school district. If you cannot get an Exemption from Compulsory Attendance from your school district, your parent/guardian can register students for home-school at the Lane Education School District and get a GED Release letter. The GED Release letter will serve as the equivalent to an Exemption from Compulsory Attendance and can be submitted with your application.
Your application cannot be completed until this form is submitted or sent to the ABSE office at abse@lanecc.edu. If you have questions about this process, please call the ABSE office at (541) 463-5214.
If you are 18 years old or older, skip this step.
Check Your Email for Your L Number & Student Account Information
Once your application has been processed, you’ll receive a welcome email from LCC with your L Number (Student ID) and instructions for setting up your student Gmail. Be sure to check the email address you used on your admissions form for these emails. Your L Number and Gmail are tools you will use during your time as a student at Lane.
Please check your spam folders, if you don’t receive an email within a day or two after applying.
Attend Orientation & Get Scheduled for Classes
You'll also receive an email from LCC with a link to sign up for orientation and placement assessments. This helps us find the right class level for you.
Once you attend orientation and complete the assessments, we will help you schedule your ABSE/GED classes.
You’re In!
Attend your classes regularly, and contact the ABSE office or your instructors if you need to make any changes to your schedule.
