LPC Course
- NMAT 256 - Geometry
- NMAT 202C - Just In Time Concurrent Support for Mathematics
This is a noncredit, pre-transfer class. It is up to each individual school district whether or not they will "count" the class. Please talk to a high school counselor for more information.
We HIGHLY recommend that students sign up for the Concurrent Support, even if they do not plan on using it. It is difficult to add after the course has begun, due to the already shortened summer session.

Is this course approved by the UC/CSU?
Summer Geometry is a PRE-TRANSFER, NONCREDIT class. It is up to your district if it will "count" for your high school transcript and/or requirements.
In many cases, if a course has been approved by your high school to count towards high school graduation and A-G requirements, and it has been notated on your high school transcript, the course can fulfill university requirements. However, it is best to confirm acceptable course requirements with the university of your choice.
When will the course begin? How many hours a day and days a week will it be offered?
This course will be offered during the Summer Sessions. The dates change from year to year. There are no plans for an alternative schedule at this time. This course is offered from Monday to Thursday in 3-4 hour blocks. This includes a lecture and a lab. Dates, times, and locations can be found in CLASS-Web once the summer schedule is released sometime in early April.
Where are the classes offered?
Concurrent Enrollment courses may be offered on the LPC campus, at a local high school, or a designated location in the community. To find the location for the class in which you have interest, visit CLASS-Web to search for the class and view the class location. Again, the schedule is for the Summer is not available until the beginning of April.
Will the course be offered online?
There are no plans to offer this course online at this time.
What if I can’t attend all class sessions?
The summer session is compact as 16 weeks worth of material will be taught in only 5 weeks, therefore, missing classes is not a viable option.
Instructors define the attendance policies for their courses. Students must consult with their instructors about course attendance and make arrangements, if any, related to absences. Instructors are able to drop you from a class if you miss a certain number of classes.
I am a student attending high school outside of the Tri-Valley Area. Can I take Geometry at Las Positas College in the summer?
This course has been designed for high school students. Though it is a college course, it is noncredit and therefore does not earn any college credit. Please consult with your high school counselor to find out whether this course will count toward high school graduation requirements and how it will appear on your transcript.
