As of January 2002, NYS allows registered programs to accept no more than 250 clock hours completed in other approved schools or programs in the following courses:

• Anatomy & Physiology
• Kinesiology
• Shiatsu
• Student Massage Clinic hours

To apply for transfer credit, simply submit your completed FLSM Application, and all relevant transcripts and detailed course descriptions. 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. 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.
