Lakeland is an Experiential Education institution. We believe students learn more by doing. At our residential campus, students can earn up to 25% of their degree through paid, professional work experience. Students have a pathway to graduate in four years with little- or no-tuition debt, making a Bachelor’s Degree accessible to anyone with the desire to learn. At Lakeland, Students aren’t just earning a degree. We are connecting them with globally recognized companies and they're learning the skills that employers are seeking. Classes are designed around these real-life experiences and students career goals — so when they graduate, they are confident and ready to start a career they’re passionate about.
Our adult learners earn their degree often while juggling careers and families. Our flexible delivery formats allow for students to earn credit in the classroom and in their workplace. Whether enhancing their resume, or looking to completely change their career pathways, we offer innovative pathways for degree completion.
Our student-athletes are a force to be reckoned with, as our men's and women's teams and individuals compete in NCAA Division III baseball, basketball, football, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, track & field, volleyball and wrestling.
