Lakeland Community College is a public community college in Lake County, Ohio, United States. Established in 1967, Lakeland was the first college in Ohio founded by a vote of the people. Today, Lakeland serves more than 8,000 full-time and part-time students each year at the main campus in Kirtland, an off-site location in Madison, and via distance learning.
Worth considering if you're looking to keep costs low and avoid heavy debt — at just $7,557/year after aid and a median graduation debt of only $7,780, this is one of the more affordable paths to a degree in Ohio. The trade-off is that median earnings sit at $36,700 a decade out, which is modest, so think carefully about which program you choose and whether it aligns with careers that can grow beyond that ceiling.
