Keep transportation in mind, you can only catch a bus every two hours, and at night it is very dark. Don't mind the local attitude, it is innocent as much as it is intimidating. Bring your own food or risk over paying at the bookstore, although there is a delightful cafe open in the cafeteria.

If your on a deadline this mite not be for you, just in case you don't pass a class. I say this because this is a small college, with limited classes being offered at times.

Have a game plan and know approximately classes to take and when.

Find a reliable way to school in the winter. The bus is often late and the paths to the school get pretty rough in the snow.

I would have to tell future LTCC students that to be able to appreciate the college they must first appreciate the culture of Lake Tahoe. The community in this town is unlike any other in that it is a tourist destination with a small year-round population. Nature is glorified in this town; education and self-improvement are extremely important to the students.
