Thatcher — RegisteredNursing.org has released a ranking of the best schools offering nursing programs in Arizona, and Eastern Arizona College tops the list.
RegisteredNursing.org ranked schools based on their “passing rate,” meaning the number of students who pass the NCLEX-RN nursing exam. EAC has a score of 99.12, ahead of second place Estrella Mountain Community College with a score of 96.43. Arizona College of Nursing was third with 96.3 points.
NCLEX-RN acceptance rates were analyzed retroactively from 2021-5. The pass rates were then averaged together and weighted by exam recency. The 2021 pass rate will contribute more to the overall ranking than the 2017 score.
This is the seventh year RegisteredNursing.org has published the list of the state’s top-performing nursing programs.
