Therefore, if you have questions about what you need to submit after reviewing the requirements, our Information Session will help you become familiar with all of the documentation and information you will need for the Nursing application. We will also review the prerequisites you will need to complete before you can submit your application. And, you will have time to ask any questions you may have about the application process.

Transfer Students

Thank you for choosing LASC to complete your career goals in nursing! Transfer students are considered students who have withdrawn from another nursing program with a satisfactory academic status and are eligible to return. If this is you, here’s how you can apply to LASC’s Nursing program.

First, please note, we are currently only accepting transfer students if space is available. Therefore, space for transfer students is very limited.

If you have been accepted into another program and completed at least one semester, your application will be reviewed on an individual basis. This process requires:

  1. A complete application - You will need to follow the same application process as general students in the How to Apply section above in order to apply to the program. You will also need to meet the admissions requirements for our program’s general nursing students.
  2. A completed Transfer Recommendation Form.
  3. A Course Syllabus for all successfully completed Nursing courses.
  4. Official transcripts.

Please contact the Nursing Front Office at (323) 241-5461 with any questions.

Note: If you were enrolled in another Associate Degree Program and were academically dismissed, you are NOT eligible to apply to this program.

Allow enough time to gather all of your official transcripts. We suggest you do this as soon as possible to make sure these documents are ready before the deadline.

Please contact the Nursing Front Office at (323) 241-5461 with any questions.
