Landmark College encourages students to make decisions and choices that have a positive impact on themselves and their community. The Student Handbook is your guide to all of the College’s rules, regulations, and policies that govern our community.

Community Standards

Landmark College is a unique community of students, faculty, and staff, each committed to fostering both the skills and enthusiasm necessary for personal growth and continuing education. The specific policies and procedures contained in this Student Handbook and other policies on this page originate from the basic concept of recognizing each person as an individual worthy of respect, trust, dignity, and fair treatment. All students who have enrolled at Landmark College agree to abide by these policies and procedures that are intended to promote mutual respect, safety, ethical awareness, and a congenial environment conducive to effective living and learning.

The College reserves the right to add, modify, or amend any part of this handbook between publication dates. The College will inform students, faculty, and staff through various means when any changes to this handbook are made.
