FORT VALLEY, Ga. -- (Business Wire)

Fort Valley State University has partnered with global education company Kaplan to provide students with a transformational opportunity for academic and career advancement. FVSU students have free access to Kaplan’s best-in-class preparation for graduate-level admissions exams, professional licensing exams, and credential exams, including the GRE®, GMAT®, LSAT®, MCAT®, NCLEX-RN®, securities exams, and more. Students also have access to a robust suite of professional and academic skills development courses from Kaplan.

By investing in Kaplan’s All Access License^®, colleges and universities can provide all of their students with access to Kaplan’s industry-leading test prep for admissions exams, licensure, credentialing programs, and workforce readiness programs with zero out-of-pocket costs for students, helping them reach their ultimate career goals. Since Kaplan’s All Access License was launched in 2022, tens of thousands of students have collectively saved more than $60 million in out-of-pocket costs for these programs.

“This partnership with Kaplan represents a significant investment in the academic and professional success of our students,” said FVSU President Paul Jones, Ph.D. “By removing financial barriers to high-quality test preparation and skills development, we are expanding access to opportunities that support graduate school readiness, professional licensure and workforce competitiveness. This initiative reinforces our commitment to student achievement, social mobility and preparing graduates to thrive in a global, 21st-century economy.”

Among the many institutional partners of Kaplan’s All Access License are: Cleveland State University, Xavier University of Louisiana, Howard University, Spelman College, and Hampden-Sydney College. At the government level, the Illinois Student Assistance Commission (ISAC), the state’s college access and financial aid agency, has contracted Kaplan to provide universal test prep and skills development courses to all students enrolled in Illinois’ 12 public universities; five Illinois community colleges are also included as part of a pilot program.

“By providing universal access to comprehensive test preparation and professional skills development courses to its students, Fort Valley State University is advancing its mission to help them succeed in the 21st-century global community,” said Kim Canning, vice president, university partners, Kaplan. “We’re excited to partner with FVSU on this important initiative and excited to support learners as they pursue new academic and career pathways.
