LMU Pathway Promise Program
The LMU Pathway Promise program invites eligible students the opportunity to enroll at one of our partner community colleges in Los Angeles County for at least one academic year. During their time at the community college, students take LMU transferable and degree applicable coursework. Upon meeting academic program requirements, LMU Pathway Promise students are guaranteed admission to the university as sophomore or junior transfers.
