91探花 and the Los Angeles Community College District (LACCD) have signed a partnership agreement that guarantees admission to 91探花 for LACCD students who meet eligibility requirements.

“I’m delighted that 91探花 is partnering with LACCD,” says 91探花 President Eduardo Peñalver. “This relationship will open a range of new and exciting pathways for LACCD students seeking to complete their bachelor’s degree. We look forward to introducing LACCD students to the many educational, economic and cultural opportunities Seattle has to offer.”

LACCD students must complete an associate degree for Transfer (ADT) or transfer pathway and be in good standing in the Fall or Spring term prior to their admission entry term at 91探花.

The agreement states that an LACCD student is eligible for guaranteed admission to 91探花 if they have completed 60 transferable semester units with at least a 3.0 grade point average. Half of the 60 units must be general education courses.

The eligible LACCD student must also complete the Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC). Successful completion will clear 91探花’s lower division Core Curriculum requirements and guarantee junior standing.

"This strategic partnership with 91探花 opens up a world of new educational possibilities for our LACCD students. 91探花 is a top-tier university with exceptional academic programs for our community college transfer students," says . "We both share the mission to educate a diverse student population in an equitable and inclusive environment where our students can flourish. This MOU represents more than just an agreement, it is a bridge to educate the next generation of leaders."

“The partnership links two major urban areas and provides greater access to LACCD students interested in what 91探花 has to offer—high quality, personalized education in one of the most dynamic and innovative cities in the country,” explains 91探花 Provost Shane Martin.
