The 2023 graduates of the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program at the University of Arkansas at Monticello recently achieved a 100% pass rate on the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN).

Dr. Brandy Haley, dean of the UAM School of Nursing, said, "The NCLEX-RN determines if a nursing graduate has the knowledge to practice nursing safely. The exam changed this year in an attempt to better evaluate new graduates' critical thinking skills. Our 100% pass rate demonstrates that our graduates' clinical reasoning is superb." 

Dr. Haley attributes the success rate to the program's excellent nurse educators and motivated students.
