Admissions Requirements

For consideration for admission into Lakeview College of Nursing, applicants must meet the following requirements:

1. Cumulative College GPA of 2.5 on a 4.0 scale.
2. Admission Test Scores (RNs Exempt)
3. 60 Credit Hours in General Education and Prerequisite Courses with a “C” or better grade. 

4. A high school diploma - the College recognizes enrollment into the bachelor’s degree program by accepting the successful completion of 60 credit hours as the equivalent of a high school diploma.

   Note: A “regular student” for Federal Title IV student aid programs must have a high school diploma and/or a recognized equivalent of a high school diploma and/or are beyond the age of compulsory school attendance in the State where the school is physically located. If the College or Department of Education has reason to believe that the high school diploma is invalid or was not obtained from an entity that provides secondary school education, the student will be required to provide documentation from the high school/secondary school that confirms the validity of the diploma. The documentation must include at least one of the following: transcripts, written descriptions of course requirements, or written and signed statements by principals or executive officers at the high school attesting to the rigor and quality of coursework at the high school.

Lakeview College of Nursing reserves the right to change admission requirements or to make appropriate revisions, amendments, or corrections at any time, with or without notice.

Applicants admitted under a provisional admit status must submit the following for full admission:
• Official transcripts showing completion with prerequisite requirements with a "C" or better (due before the semester drop date)
• Completed health records
• Completed background check

Documentation

All applicants must have established legal residency within the United States. Lakeview College of Nursing does not issue I-20s for student visas and, therefore, requires each student to be either a U.S. Citizen or Permanent U.S. Resident. Documentation will be required at the time of application. A naturalization certificate or a green card may be used as documentation for those born outside the United States.
