Program Completion Rates

Expected Level of Achievement for completion (graduation) rates are measured by two objectives.  (1)Traditional students admitted to the nursing program will graduate within six semesters, or one-and-one-half the length of the program and, (2) LPN’s entering through advanced standing will graduate within one year, or one-and one-half the length of the program for the LPN “fast-track.”
