School Description

Provided by Our Lady of the Lake College

Inspired by the vision of St. Francis of Assisi and in the tradition of the Roman Catholic Church, we extend the healing ministry of Jesus Christ to God's people, especially those most in need.

We call forth all who serve in this healthcare ministry, to share their gifts and talents to create a spirit of healing ----- with reverence and love for all of life, with joyfulness of spirit, and with humility and justice for all those entrusted to our care.

We are, with God's help, a healing and spiritual presence for each other and for the communities we are privileged to serve.

Our Lady of the Lake College

From Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia

Our Lady of the Lake College is an independent Catholic institution located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. It is sponsored by the Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady, North American Province. It was started in 1923 as Our Lady of the Lake School of Nursing to educate students to serve as health care providers. In 1995, a year after receiving full accreditation from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) as an associate degree granting institution, the college was renamed Our Lady of the Lake College. SACS gave the College baccalaureate degree-granting authority in 1998 and master's degree-granting authority in 2005.

The college has an enrollment of more than 1,800 students. It offers associate's, bachelor's, and master's degrees in programs such as nursing, health sciences, humanities, behavioral sciences, and arts and sciences. The College also offers three accelerated ASN programs in the Greater New Orleans area--at West Jefferson Medical Center in Marrero, Louisiana; at East Jefferson General Hospital in Metairie, Louisiana; and at Tulane Medical Center in New Orleans, Louisiana.
