Central’s Registered Nursing program earned a high ranking on a professional nursing organization’s top 10 list of best nursing schools in Connecticut.
The website RegisteredNursing.org placed Central at number 4 out of 22 nursing programs in the state based on its current and historical NCLEX-RN pass rates—the percentage of graduates who pass the exam. The NCLEX-RN exam is used by all state boards of nursing across the United States to help assess a student’s competency and is required for licensure.
“Our methodology ensures that we assess how effectively a program supports students in their journey toward licensure and beyond,” said Sally Worthington of RegisteredNursing.org in recent press release.
Central ranked higher than UConn at Storrs and Avery point, Yale University, and Fairfield University.
