COLUMBIA, KY (08/19/2025) - Lindsey Wilson University's nursing program is one of the best in Kentucky. That's according to a recent ranking by Nurse.org.
In the recently released "Top 10 Best Nursing Schools in Kentucky," Lindsey Wilson was one of the 10 schools mentioned. The leading educational website for nurses by nurses, Nurse.org independently researches schools and programs for nurses.
This is the third consecutive year Lindsey Wilson's nursing program has landed in Nurse.org's top 10 ranking.
"This wonderful news is a testament to our amazing Lindsey Wilson faculty, administration and students," said Lindsey Wilson Director of Nursing Dr. Emiley Button. "A big reason we have one of the best nursing programs in Kentucky is because we have incredible faculty and staff who are laser-focused on student success."
Lindsey Wilson's nursing program will start the 2025-26 school year on Aug. 25 with a near-record number of students enrolled in its new cohort. The nursing program also posted a 100% pass rate for Lindsey Wilson students who sat for the 2024 National Council Licensure Examination, the nationwide examination for the licensing of nurses in the United States.
The Lindsey Wilson nursing program recently received a grant from the Kentucky Council on Postsecondary Education Healthcare Workforce Investment Fund to establish a healthcare training scholarship partnership between Lindsey Wilson and Taylor Regional Hospital in Campbellsville. It was the second grant Lindsey Wilson received from the Education Healthcare Workforce Investment Fund. The previous one established a healthcare training scholarship partnership with T.J. Regional Health of Glasgow.
The CPE's Education Healthcare Workforce Investment Fund is a public-private partnership that provides healthcare training scholarships for Kentucky resident students and incentives to reward performance and excellence among healthcare professional programs.
