To be eligible for unconditional admission to courses creditable toward an associate degree, first- time students must have submitted an application for admission and one of the following criteria:
1. An official transcript showing graduation with the Alabama High School Diploma, date of graduation, a high school diploma of another state equivalent to the Alabama High School Diploma or equivalent diploma issued by a non-public, regionally and/or state accredited high school.
2. Hold a GED Certificate issued by the appropriate state educational agency.
3. In addition, all male applicants between the ages of 18 and 26 must document registration with the U.S. Selective Service System in accordance with 36-26-15.1 of the Code of Alabama of 1974 (as amended).
B. Admission of Transfer Students
An applicant who previously attended a postsecondary institution will be considered a transfer student and will be required to furnish the official transcripts from each postsecondary institution previously attended. LSCC also requires documents required of first-time college students including the high school transcript if the transfer student has not earned at least 24 semester hours or 36 quarter hours at the previous college(s). A transfer student who meets the admissions requirements to courses creditable toward an Associate Degree will be classified as degree eligible. A degree-eligible student should request that the Office of Admissions and Enrollment Management evaluate the transcript(s) for courses that apply toward an associate degree. A transfer student who does not meet these requirements will be classified as a non-degree eligible student.
Applicants who have been suspended from another institution for academic or disciplinary reasons will not be considered for admission except upon appeal.
Unconditional Admission of Transfer Students
1. For unconditional admission, a transfer student must have submitted to the college an application for admission and the official transcript(s) from each postsecondary institution previously attended and, as designated by LSCC, any other documents required for first time college students. A student who transfers from one or more colleges or universities not accredited by recognized regional accreditation agencies must submit the official high school transcript or GED scores. 2. An applicant having completed the baccalaureate degree or a higher degree is required to submit only the transcript from the institution having granted the baccalaureate degree. Note: Applicants wishing to apply transfer credit towards an LSCC curriculum must provide transcripts from each applicable undergraduate institution rather than only the transcript from the institution having issued the baccalaureate degree.
NOTE: If the student intends to obtain a degree from LSCC, the transcript(s) from the institution(s) may be required for an evaluation prior to graduation if any such coursework should be applied
