Do students finish?
A pass rate only counts the students who reach the exam. Of every 100 who start, this is how many finish on time and then pass the NCLEX on the first try.
the program’s own disclosure: On-time completion as the program reports it for its accreditor — for ACEN, students who finish within the program’s stated length from the first nursing course. Each school page links the program’s own page.
