<p>At many Programs, if not most, you may need to specifically ask about these things if it is not included in a Programs website/description or if nothing is said about it during information sessions. I suspect many Programs want to minimize the potential of “scaring off” prospective students by overtly making information about these things readily available. I would steer clear from any Programs that will not provide you with this information.</p>
<p>Actually an NCLEX first time pass rate of 88% is not bad, especially if it has been relatively consistent for a few years. As noted in another post many students, if not most, will pass the NCLEX Exam on the second try. But you cannot take the NCLEX Exam until after you graduate and have your Nursing Degree.</p>
