All Georgetown Students Pass NCLEX On First Time

Once again, Georgetown University School of Nursing & Health Studies achieved a perfect score on the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN).

All nursing students who took the examination in December 2006 passed the licensure examination on their first attempt. Earlier in the year, one hundred percent of the May cohort also passed the initial time around.

"We are extremely proud of our students," said Michael Relf, Ph.D., chair of the Department of Nursing. "We offer a rigorous curriculum that prepares students, not just for entry into practice and licensure, but for the challenges of contemporary clinical practice."
