Graduates from the university’s first three nursing cohorts achieve a 100% BSN pass rate and a 91.7% MSN pass rate
SAN DIEGO, Oct. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Alliant University today announced an overall 94.7% pass rate on the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX) for calendar year 2026, marking a significant milestone for its nursing program and graduates from its first three cohorts.
Graduates of Alliant’s Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program achieved a 100% pass rate, while graduates of its Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) program achieved a 91.7% pass rate. The results were finalized after the last eligible graduate for the year completed and passed the examination.
The NCLEX assesses the knowledge, skills, and abilities essential to safe nursing practice. Passing the examination is a key requirement for becoming a licensed registered nurse.
“These results reflect the dedication of our nursing graduates and the faculty and staff who have supported them throughout their education,” said Andy Vaughn, president and CEO of Alliant University. “As healthcare systems face workforce shortages and growing demand for care, preparing skilled nurses is increasingly important. Even as technology transforms the workplace, nursing remains rooted in human connection, clinical judgment, and compassionate care. We’re proud to prepare graduates for a profession in which their expertise and the relationships they build can make a meaningful difference in people’s lives.”
The results mark an important early achievement for Alliant’s nursing program and underscore its commitment to preparing graduates for professional practice. As these graduates take the next step toward licensure, they join a profession centered on supporting patients, families, and communities through some of life’s most consequential moments.
