Notification & next steps

  1. You will be notified within 4 weeks of receipt of your program application materials.
  2. When your file is complete, you will be notified about your admission status. Most students are initially placed on a program waiting list for 12-18 months. During this time you are strongly encouraged to compete all required general education courses.
  3. Acceptance letters for the PTA-Military Bridge program will be emailed in March for the following spring semester’s PTA courses. This is for formal program acceptance once you are no longer on the waiting list.
  • Accepted

    If you are formally accepted into the PTA-Military Bridge program you will receive an acceptance letter followed by information about the required online orientation. You must complete the steps outlined in the acceptance letter to secure your seat in the program.

Not accepted
You will remain on the wait list until a spot opens. At that time LSC will contact you about starting the program. You don’t need to reapply as an LSC student.
