Here is a link to the Massachusetts NCLEX results:

In 2014, in your MA group, the highest NCLEX results are: Worcester State had a 98% passing rate [direct admit] & Fitchburg had a 93% passing rate [nondirect admit].
Endicott [direct admit] had a 82% passing rate. Westfield [direct] 81%, Curry [direct] 62%,
Regis [direct] 60% & Elms [nondirect admit] 72%
NCLEX results show what percentage of the nursing students are passing the RN exam on the 1st attempt. Since there is no undergraduate ratings of nursing schools, the NCLEX is a helpful indicator of the quality of the nursing program.
You will need to look up the NCLEX results in your OOS schools - NH, RI & CT.
