XAVIER COLLEGE IS ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR THE RN PRE-LICENSURE PROGRAM THAT BEGINS IN FEBRUARY 2027

Beginning on June 8, 2026 until June 19, 2026, from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm (Monday-Friday), we will accept applications for admission to our RN prelicensure associate degree program. No appointment is necessary. This is for the full program and is for NON-LVNs only. LVNs may not apply for the full program and may only apply for advanced placement. Those applications are currently being accepted in May only. See the other post regarding applications for advanced placement.

Please go to our website as it provides answers to questions asked by many applicants. Remember to complete the application form that can be downloaded from the website and submitted with a $100 application fee. https://xavier-college.com/admissions/
We will accept only applications complete with all documents required as listed on the website. We will not accept incomplete application packages. Bring original drivers’ license or passport and copies. Copies will be retained by the school.

Admission testing will begin as early as June 26, 2026 for those who have submitted a complete application package. We will communicate details of admission testing by email immediately after the application period ends. You must take the exam here at our campus. We do not accept test scores taken at any other testing location.

You will be taking the ATI TEAS exam, and you must score 65% or higher in EACH of the 4 categories. (we DO NOT go by overall score) You will pay the testing vendor directly before your exam. Currently the fee is $70 but is subject to change. If you do not pass the exam, you will not be able to retake it until next year. We allow one attempt per year, and two attempts total.

Please be aware that financial aid is limited to federal student aid, which does not cover the full tuition. For most students, the aid covers less than half of the tuition. Students are required to pay the remaining balance due after federal financial aid is applied. There are absolutely no other loans (outside of our institution or otherwise) available to our students.

1. ___ Completed application form and fee of $100 in cash or money order.
2. ___ Proof of Identity (Drivers License Or Passport) and copy to be retained in the applicant’s file.
3. ___ Proof of High School Education (Sealed and Unopened Official Transcript) For international transcripts, submit official report of academic review for U.S. equivalency along with copies of your foreign document that was evaluated.
4. There are no prerequisites required. Please only complete the sections of the application form that apply to you.

Please note that foreign transcripts must be evaluated by a NACES member evaluation agency only. We cannot accept foreign evaluations that are not from an agency on their list. You may find their list on the NACES website and their link may be found in the comments below. If you need a foreign evaluation, we strongly recommend you have that done now as some agencies may take up to 30 days to complete your evaluation.

There are limited seats available in the class beginning in February 2027. There is no guarantee that you will make it into that class and you may be waitlisted to a future class.
