Classes In Tentative Status document lists courses that required in-person learning experiences (either on-campus or off-campus). The College is currently planning how these classes might be able to be conducted during the fall 2020 semester to ensure the health and safety of our students, faculty, and staff. The decision to schedule may be made later this summer and, if so, will be based on guidelines from the LA County Public Health Department. Based on our ability to conduct these classes, some courses may be delayed to future semesters. If a course can be scheduled, sections that can be held will appear in the online schedule. Please check back at this page for further updates or contact the department chairperson or faculty advisor for questions.

General Catalog
2020-21 General Catalog 8MB | Addendum A: Microsoft Word | Major Code ListCatalog Archive
Student Catalog RightsThe following are Los Angeles Community College District Board of Trustees rules that govern what degrees and certificates a student may earn during their educational career at Los Angeles Pierce College.
■ 6201.13 Competency Requirement. Students must satisfy the requirements for meeting competency in written expression and mathematics. Through the collegial consultation process, the Chancellor, acting on behalf of the Board of Trustees, shall rely primarily upon the recommendation of the District Academic Senate, to establish procedures for determining competency. ■ 6203. Catalog Rights. For these purposes, a catalog year is defined as beginning with the fall semester through the subsequent summer. A student remaining in continuous attendance in the Los Angeles Community College District may elect to satisfy the degree, certificate or graduation requirements in effect at the college from which the student will either earn his/her degree, certificate or graduate:
For the purposes of implementing this policy, the college may develop a policy to:
A student who no longer maintains catalog rights may apply to be awarded a certificate or degree that was completed while s/he maintained catalog rights. In such a case, it shall be awarded retroactively in the last term of the period in which the student maintained those rights in which the certificate or degree requirements were completed. The college's policy shall be developed in consultation with the college Academic Senate in accordance with the provisions of Chapter XVIII of the Board Rules - ACADEMIC SENATE AND THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES SHARED GOVERNANCE POLICY, and published in all college catalogs under appropriate headings. This policy does not apply to college programs which are governed or regulated by outside government agencies or which require licensure or certification through one of these agencies. ■ 6204. Continous Attendance. "Continuous attendance" means no more than one semester absence within a school year, excluding Summer Sessions and Winter Intersession. Students granted a "military withdrawal" or a grade of "EW" under the provisions of Board Rule 6700, will be considered to be in "continuous attendance" for their required period of military service or excused withdrawal. |

Veterans' Counseling
The veterans counselors in the Pierce Counseling Office work in partnership with the personnel in the Financial Aid/Veterans/Scholarship Office (Veterans Office) to ensure that you are making progress toward your academic goal in a manner that satisfies the requirements of the VA so that you receive your benefits in a timely manner.
To make your transition to Pierce College, we recommend you follow these steps:
(1) Visit the veterans desk in the Veterans Office(2nd floor of Student Services bldg) where you will be given a packet of materials- some of which you complete and some which you will complete with a VA counselor. View VA Website.
(2) Make an appointment with a veterans counselor. Bring your completed paperwork and any supporting documents such as transcript(s) with you. At this meeting, you will complete an Educational Plan which involves evaluating your previous education to determine if any can be applied to your current educational goal at Pierce College. Your Educational Plan will specify which courses are to be completed on our campus. The VA will only pay for the courses on the plan. The completed documents are to be returned to the Veterans Office. .There are no Veterans Counselors available after 4pm.
(3) Each semester after you have registered for classes have the Veterans Office sign-off on your schedule, signifying that the courses are consistent with the Educational Plan. You may do this by dropping in to the VA office.
You will only need to complete one Educational Plan for the duration of your stay at Pierce. However, if you change your educational goal you will also need to complete an new Educational Plan.
