INA, Ill. (Jan. 5, 2024)—The RLC Nursing Program reaches their goal with an exceptional 91% pass-rate for the NCLEX-RN exam.

The NCLEX-RN is an exam used to determine if recently graduated nursing students are qualified to earn licensure and provide safe patient care.

91% of RLC Nursing students passed the exam on their first attempt, meeting the national average for test-takers across the country, with a 100% probability in job placement after graduation.

“This is a big achievement that we have been working towards,” said RLC Nursing Instructor Sarah Hopfinger.  

Congratulations to students, faculty, and staff in the RLC Nursing Program for their dedication in providing quality healthcare to our community and beyond.
