Western Illinois University (WIU) is the first to launch a new partnership for test prep with Prepare for Illinois’ Future Powered by Kaplan’s All Access License.
It provides students with free access to industry-leading test preparation products for graduate admissions exams, licensure exams, credentialing exams and professional development courses.
The State of Illinois and the Illinois Student Assistance Commission (ISAC) have partnered with Kaplan, a global educational services provider, to offer free academic resources to students at institutions across the state. WIU students will have free access to more than 40 courses, equipping them to take exams such as the GRE, GMAT, MCAT, LSAT and many more.
“We know many of our students are planning for the next steps in their academic and professional journeys, whether it’s graduate school, professional licensure, a certification or developing new skills to advance their careers. Our partnership with Kaplan opens doors for students as they prepare for these next steps,” Justin Schuch, WIU interim vice president for student success, said in a news release. “The resources offered by Kaplan will be a valuable tool for our students and complement the stellar on-campus support our faculty and staff offer.”
By receiving free access to test preparation resources, WIU students also will benefit from reduced financial barriers, increased equitable opportunities for academic and professional success and improved student outcomes. WIU said the program also will help close equity gaps by ensuring underrepresented and disadvantaged students have access to high-quality preparation resources.
WIU students take the first step and get access to Kaplan’s resources at go.kaplan.com/illinois.
