Applications are accepted on a rolling basis. The Office of Undergraduate Admissions works with students to complete their application file. Once all admissions requirements are met, the completed application is then presented to the Admissions Committee for review. Admitted students are assigned a professional Academic Advisor in the Center for the Adult Learner. The Academic Advisor will review prior learning experience and discuss the student's goals. Up to 90 transfer credits may be applied toward Lesley’s campus-based/hybrid 120-credit degree programs. Students may also earn up to 45 transfer credits (which are counted towards the maximum allowable 90 transfer credits) by documenting college-level knowledge gained via life and work experience, through our Prior Learning Assessment course (PLA). Our full-time academic advisors work with students from initial degree planning through to graduation!
