The admissions exam for all nursing students (practical and associate degree) has recently changed to the HESI Admission Assessment Exam. The test will focus on reading comprehension, vocabulary, and mathematics. For those who have taken the NLN Admissions Exam in the past, these scores will still be valid for 5 years from the test date. A study guide is available to assist in preparation for the exam: HESI Admission Assessment Exam Review, 3rd ed. (2012). ISBN: 978-4557-0333-3

Lake Land College has a partnership with the Southern Illinois University Edwardsville (SIUE) School of Nursing (SON) that enables students to rapidly achieve their baccalaureate degree from SIUE. Students must attend Lake Land College to complete an associate degree and the majority of the general education requirements. Once a student has successfully completed the ADN program at Lake Land and obtained licensure as a registered nurse, the student may progress through the remaining four RN to BS nursing courses through the SIUE’s online program.
