Local Success: Three Rivers College Nursing Students Achieve Perfect Pass Rate

Three Rivers College Nursing students have achieved a 100 percent pass rate in the NCLEX-RN or NCLEX-PN exam, a requirement for becoming a registered or practical nurse. This is their first time reaching this achievement. Laura McElroy, the college's Director of Nursing, commended the students' success.

In December, the college graduated 39 Practical Nursing students from its Poplar Bluff and Sikeston programs. This is the fourth year in a row and the sixth time overall that the Practical Nursing program has achieved a 100 percent pass rate. Andrea Pierce, Director of Practical Nursing, credited the students' success to their dedication and hard work.

The 2023 NCLEX-RN national pass rate was 69.66%, and the NCLEX-PN pass rate was 74.54%, as reported by the National Council of State Boards of Nursing. Three Rivers nursing programs provide rigorous coursework, faculty interaction, and diverse clinical experiences, which contribute to their high pass rates and job placement rates.

To be admitted into Three Rivers' nursing programs, students must complete an application and meet specific criteria. Information about the programs' pass rates and job placement rates is available on the Nursing Program application.
