Lake Region State College (LRSC) is a public junior college in Devils Lake, North Dakota. It was founded in 1941 as an extension of the public school system and first known as Devils Lake Junior College and Business School. Several name changes have occurred over the years ranging from Lake Region Junior College to Community College. The current name of Lake Region State College was adopted in 1999. From 1987 until 1999, the college was a branch campus of the University of North Dakota in Grand Forks, known as UND-Lake Region. In 1984, the college became a part of the North Dakota University System.
Worth considering if you're looking for an affordable two-year college to start your education without taking on heavy debt — graduates leave with just $7,475 in median debt, which is remarkably low. That said, median earnings of $39,800 a decade out are modest, so think carefully about your transfer or career plans before enrolling. This small Devils Lake campus works best as a stepping stone, not a destination.
