  • Orlando, FL (1888PressRelease) August 28, 2012 - Remington College of Nursing is proud to announce that its most recent class of graduates has achieved a 100% pass rate on the NCLEX exam.

    "This is a remarkable achievement and we congratulate our students, faculty and clinical partners on this success," said Karin Polifko, PhD, RN, NEA-BC, Vice President, Operations and Academic Affairs for Remington College of Nursing. "This is a rigorous exam and passing it signifies that they have put a tremendous amount of time and dedication into their studies."

    "Our high pass rate on the NCLEX illustrates our commitment to quality outcomes and developing excellent registered nurse candidates," said Dr. Polifko. "We're keenly aware of the nursing shortage in certain areas and our program provides graduates who, after passing the state licensure examination, can work as registered nurses in a variety of health care settings throughout the country."

    Remington College of Nursing's accelerated Bachelor of Science of Nursing program is designed for students who possess a bachelor's or higher degree but desire to make a career change to the field of nursing. Qualifying students who have a Bachelor of Science or Arts degree can earn their BSN degree in as few as 12 months.

    "Our program is for those individuals who are interested in changing their original career path with the ability to be intensely dedicated during this concentrated year," Dr. Polifko said. "Our students have already earned a college degree and are now focused on earning a BSN to pursue careers in health care."

    Remington College of Nursing, located in Lake Mary, Florida, features modern classrooms as well as a clinical simulation laboratory which contains human patient simulators, mannequins and medical equipment, resembling a hospital environment.
