Albion College, the top liberal arts school in the Midwest and ranked first in the state for providing an excellent student experience and social mobility for its graduates, both per The Wall Street Journal, announced today that a new partnership with global educational services provider Kaplan is now providing all of its students, faculty, staff, and alumni with free test prep courses for graduate-level admissions exams, including the GRE®, GMAT®, LSAT®, and MCAT®. Additionally, they will have access to a suite of skills-development courses that they can take for free with Kaplan, on topics ranging from career readiness to data literacy.

By investing in Kaplan’s All Access License, colleges and universities can help their students and others prepare for a variety of high-stakes admissions and licensing exams that they need to score well on to reach their ultimate professional goals—with zero out-of-pocket costs for students—in addition to taking courses to hone skills that will help them succeed in the workplace. Albion College is Kaplan’s latest All Access License partner, joining Xavier University of Louisiana, Howard University, Delaware State University, Fisk University, Hampton University, Spelman College, Cleveland State University, and Syracuse University College of Law, among others. Unique to the Albion partnership is that it’s Kaplan’s first All Access License partner to extend these free offerings to not only current students, but also to alumni, faculty, and staff.

“At Albion College, we are dedicated to fostering an environment where every member of our community—students, faculty, staff, and alumni—has the resources and opportunities to succeed and grow. Through our partnership with Kaplan, we’re thrilled to offer free access to top-tier test preparation, micro-credentials, and licensure programs. This initiative reinforces our commitment to student success and lifelong learning, equipping all members of the Albion community with tools that support their academic and professional journeys long after graduation.”
