In accordance with New York State Board of Education requirements, FLSM considers up to 250 hours of transfer credit from previous college or massage school education in the following courses:

• Anatomy & Physiology
• Kinesiology
• Shiatsu
• Massage Practicum & Clinic Internship

To apply for transfer credit, simply submit your completed FLSM Application along with your $150 non-refundable Transfer Application Fee, and your previous transcripts and school catalogs. We will review your records and inform you of any credits you may be eligible to transfer into our program, and will at that time arrange for you to take any applicable challenge exam to evaluate your knowledge of transferred material. Each exam carries a $100 non-refundable fee. Tuition will be discounted in a pro-rated manner, reflecting hours transferred to the program.

If you already have 1000 hours of coursework, we suggest you contact New York State directly regarding licensure application.
