Matriculation Exemptions

At the time of application, all students are classified as Exempt or Non-Exempt from various matriculation components.

Exempt Students are those who:

1. Have already earned an Associate Degree or higher.
2. Plan to enroll in a personal interest/P.E. course.
3. Have previously taken an assessment at another college and are able to provide evidence of results.
4. Have previously completed English 101 (or equivalent) and/or Math 115 (or equivalent) at a college or university and are able to provide verification.

Some students may be exempt form one or more of the individual matriculation components. Exempt students may participate in all matriculation programs. All other students are coded as non-exempt. Non-exempt students are expected to complete orientation, assessment, and counseling components during the first semester at LAMC.
