Frequently asked Admissions Questions

How can I reset my student​ portal password? 

Students can contact the IT support desk by emailing:​ lahc-techsupport@laccd.edu. 

Students ​may retrieve their student​ ID number by contacting Admissions at arhelp@lahc.edu. Please include a copy of your photo ID and the following information in your email: full name, date of birth, and last four digits of your social security number (if applicable).  

​​Students can contact the Counseling Department​ with an unofficial copy of their high school/college transcripts to clear prerequisites and assessments. 

​Please contact the Business/Cashier’s Office​ for a detailed breakdown.  

​Student’s registration appointments are located in their student portals under the Manage Classes tile > Enrollment Dates. If no date appears and the student is active/a new student, then the system automatically assigns the Open Enrollment Registration time. 

​If the student has already graduated high school, the student can self-report their high school graduation with the High School Graduation Update form​. The form can be submitted to the Admissions email, arhelp@lahc.edu. Students are still required to follow up with an official high school transcript including a graduation date.  

​​Major emphasis and home campus can be changed through the Counseling Department. The Home Campus Change must be completed at the campus which the home campus is being updated to.  

​The To-do Checklists related to the Admissions Office in the student’s portal will not prevent enrollment, but if they are not completed on time, they may affect the following semester registration times.

• ​Students can click on the to-do list item to determine which department has issued the checklist. 

​Unit Overloads must be granted and submitted by a Counselor. Click here for the Counseling Department.  

​​Please refer to the New/Returning student info​ tab to see which type of student you are and if you need to reapply.   

​Transcripts are not required in order to enroll in the Los Angeles Community College District. However, transcripts of other schools you have attended are required for certain petitions and will be notated on the petition if it is required. Delay in submitting official transcripts can result in the delay of processing and/or the automatic denial of the petition 

In order to receive credit for similar courses taken at colleges outside the LACCD, students will need to submit a Petition for Credit form. Along with the Petition for Credit form, students will need to provide their own copies of course descriptions and unofficial copies of their transcripts. 

• ​For more information about the process, students may speak to a Counselor.
• ** Please note that not all courses will need to be petitioned, it is strongly recommended that you speak with a counselor about transferring coursework to LAHC.  Similar coursework from an out-of-state college/university will have to be petitioned.  Please see a counselor for advisement. **​
