Cresson, Pa. – The 2023-2024 graduates of Mount Aloysius College’s ASN program achieved a 100 percent first-time pass rate on their National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX-RN Exam). The recent graduates are now all licensed registered nurses in several states across the US.
“I’m incredibly proud of all 61 of our ASN graduates. They worked extremely hard throughout this program,” said Heather Zonts, Dean of Nursing at Mount Aloysius. “The NCLEX is designed to really test the necessary skills to make sure that a nurse is ready to step into a clinical or hospital setting. The fact that each and every one of our 2023-2024 graduates passed is a reflection on the quality of our nursing faculty and the dedication of our students.”
NCLEX pass rates are commonly used to gauge the academic quality of nursing programs. By pairing the pass rate percentage with the number of nursing graduates taking the exam, prospective nursing students gain a more robust picture of a nursing program’s performance. Success on the NCLEX exam is the final stage of becoming a licensed registered nurse.
