Specific coursework requirements vary by program, but most require an Indiana Core 40 diploma or coursework comparable to a Core 40 curriculum.

Leffler Academy accepts the Indiana High School Equivalency Diploma as well as the GED (General Education Development) Test, TASC (Test Assessing Secondary Completion), and HiSET (High School Equivalency Test). Specific programs may set score minimums for these equivalency tests. However, there is no minimum for undergraduate admission.

Leffler Academy has a test-optional admissions policy - students can choose at the point of application whether to include SAT or ACT scores considered as part of their application review. 

In some cases, Leffler Academy may grant conditional admission to students who don't meet all the requirements listed. Students who are not sure whether your credentials match the admission standards should contact Leffler Academy.

Student’s will upload a picture of the front and back of their driver’s license or state issued ID when completing the School of Nursing application. Leffler Academy staff will use the Driver’s License or state issued ID to verify student residency at the time of application. If a student changes addresses, it is the student’s responsibility to submit a change of address form no later than 30 calendar days from the first day of residency at the new address. 

Within 14 days of receiving notification via the change of address form, a member of the Leffler Academy staff will send direct notice to a student that completion of that program would not be sufficient to meet licensure or certification requirements after a determination that the student’s location has changed to another state.
