student clubs add to the energetic vibe on campus. The college offers over 250 career-ready major & minor combinations. Whether you want a career on Wall Street or Main Street, Lane has options to launch a dream career. A Wide Variety of Career Pathways In addition to traditional college majors in business, criminal justice, sociology, physical education, and many STEM dis- ciplines, the college is an approved EPP (Education Preparation Program) for stu- dents seeking to become certified teach- ers. There are new programs in nursing and pharmacy-related careers and the college provides in-demand career cre- dentials for social media management, supply chain management, and other popular careers. In addition to students being happy with a wide variety of career pathways, stu- dents at Lane can be happy about the price. Lane is consistently ranked as one of America’s most affordable HBCUs. Lane works hard to ensure that every stu- dent can afford a private education. Educational Flexibility Lane provides students with a lot of flexi- bility. Whether you want online or on campus, traditional semester or acceler- ated terms, associate or bachelor’s degree, morning or evening, part time or full time, Lane has affordable career pathways to help you succeed. Lane promises to deliver a transformative and life changing HBCU experience from your first day. We do not place students in remedial classes. Every class can count to- ward your degree or career credential. From day one, you take classes that you will love, and you join a fun, living-learning commu- nity with peers that share your interests. With a low student-to-faculty ratio and small class sizes, students receive more one-on-one attention than at larger schools. The person-to-person and hands- on training at Lane helps students to feel more connected and involved. A Rich History Lane is one of the oldest HBCUs in Ten- nessee and a UNCF (United Negro Col- lege Fund) member institution. The college has provided students with a deeply transformative undergraduate ed- ucation – intellectually, spiritually, and so- cially – for nearly 150 years. We have nurtured business and spiritual leaders, novelists and scientists, physicians and public servants, and scholars and teachers in nearly every field of endeavor. Located in Jackson, Tennessee, Lane is in the center of a modern, progressive city and centered a short distance between the musical meccas of Memphis and Nashville. The city helps to create an ex- ceptional college experience, making it the perfect choice to pursue a college degree or career credential. Students love Jackson and many choose to call it home after graduation. Jackson is the Hub City home to Blue Oval City and provides a thriving economy with friendly people, hundreds of restaurants, shopping choices, and community events. The highly active community recreation department hosts festivals, parades, live community theater, and a flourishing cal- endar of activities guaranteeing students that there is always something to do. In short, Lane may be the perfect choice for an undergraduate education.
