How to Apply

Continuing Community College students must meet the following criteria:

• Cumulative College GPA of 3.5 or higher, with a minimum 12 college units. You will need to provide a copy of the transcript (doesn't have to be official), OR
• If your GPA is below 3.5 but still higher than 3.0 you might still be accepted with a reference of a college instructor. It can be one of the LPC instructors or another college instructor, whose course you successfully completed, and who can recommend you. You will need to simply provide an email address of your reference (no letter is required) along with your transcript.

First-time students entering from High School must meet the following criteria:

• 3.75 or higher weighted cumulative High School GPA. You will need to provide a copy of the high-school transcript (doesn't have to be official), OR
• If your GPA is below 3.75 but still higher than 3.25 you might still be accepted with a reference of someone who can recommend you to the Program: either your high-school teacher/counselor, or an LPC instructor if you happened to already complete some courses at LPC. You will need to simply provide an email address of your reference (no letter is required) along with your transcript.

If you fit the requirements above you can submit your application to the Program. You can apply at any time, there is no due date, but applying in your first year, before a semester, or early in a semester will give you the maximum chances of getting into and taking more Honors Courses.

We will prioritize applicants who will enroll in one of the Honors Designated Sections which still have spaces available.
