LUCERNE, Calif. – Recently, tuition for students attending Marymount California University’s Lakeside Campus in Lucerne was reduced substantially for residents of Lake, Mendocino, Sonoma and surrounding counties.

In the University’s efforts to increase access to achieving a bachelor’s degree, the reduced tuition will allow local students to complete their degrees while working, raising families and without relocating.

Prospective students and members of the community are encouraged to visit the campus, also known as the “Castle,” during one of the weekly open house events being held throughout the summer.

Every Wednesday, from 4 to 6 p.m., anyone interested in a tour, information on MCU Lakeside bachelor’s degree programs or general use of the facility is encouraged to drop in. Reservations are not necessary. People are invited to bring friends who are also curious about the programs and the facility.

Upcoming open house events are scheduled for July 13, 20 and 27, and Aug. 3, 10 and 17.

Prospective students are particularly encouraged to stop by to tour and learn more about the degree programs and educational opportunities available.

The campus is located at 3700 Country Club Drive in Lucerne.

For more information, call Enrollment Coordinator Kathy Windrem at 310-303-7699.
