Discontinuation of the Advanced Standing Track
Due to consistently low enrollment in the Advanced Standing Track, Lansing Community College has made the decision to discontinue this pathway effective with the Spring 2027 semester.
The Career Ladder Nursing Program remains committed to providing high-quality nursing education and will continue to offer both the Traditional Track and the Second Degree Track to meet the needs of prospective students. These pathways will continue to provide students with strong academic preparation and clinical experiences that support success in the nursing profession.
This change allows the program to focus its resources on the pathways that best serve the greatest number of students while continuing to uphold the excellence and quality of Lansing Community College's Nursing Program.
