At Radio Survivor we are working to connect college radio stations with information and resources in order to help make the filing process a little less daunting.<\/p>\n<p>College stations are in a great position to apply for LPFM licenses. If a university already holds a license for a non-student run radio station, it can still apply for a student-run LPFM. Additionally, the FCC has modified its rules in order to be even more accommodating to student stations. According to the FCC <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fcc.gov\/encyclopedia\/low-power-fm-broadcast-radio-stations-lpfm\" target=\"_blank\">website<\/a>, &#8220;&#8230;where there are no conflicting applications, LPFM applications will be accepted for university student-run LPFM stations from universities holding LPFM licenses that are not student-run.\u00a0 Separate college campuses within a university system, or individual high schools under a single school board, could each individually apply for LPFM construction permits.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Matthew Lasar just posted a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiosurvivor.com\/2013\/07\/29\/the-fcc-low-power-fm-application-a-screen-shot-tour\/\" target=\"_blank\">helpful walk-though of the LPFM application<\/a>.
