Looking at the NCLEX pass rate is just one measure of a program’s success. In the state of Kentucky, programs of nursing need to obtain an 85% or greater NCLEX pass rate annually in order to remain in good standing. There are a number of factors that can impact a program’s pass rate. One important criteria is the number of students that took the exam. If the graduating class size is small, even one or two students that are unsuccessful on NCLEX can greatly impact the overall pass rate. Historically, Kentucky programs of nursing have exceeded the national NCLEX pass rates. To look at the pass rates among Kentucky nursing programs, click on NCLEX Pass Rate [PDF Format – 21k].
