LeTourneau University

LeTourneau University is a private, four-year Christian university in Longview, Texas, with a nursing program centered on its main campus. Its Bachelor of Science in Nursing is typically completed in about four years and uses campus-based instruction paired with skills labs, simulation, and supervised clinical learning through healthcare partners in the region. Students build knowledge in health assessment, pharmacology, adult health, pediatric, maternal-newborn, mental health, community health, leadership, and evidence-based care.

The program is designed to prepare graduates for the NCLEX-RN and for entry-level registered nursing practice. LeTourneau’s approach highlights compassionate patient care, ethical decision-making, teamwork, communication, and service through a Christian worldview. The program is approved by the Texas Board of Nursing and accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education. Compared with larger public nursing options in East Texas, LeTourneau may be a strong fit for students seeking a smaller, faith-based campus environment with close faculty support and a traditional residential college experience.
