What are the current NCLEX scores from 2022? The ICHS site does not have those under "disclosures" which would where the statistics would be.

Check out the Florida BON site and it should list it on there. 

Specializes in Urology, Psychiatry.

As of the last cohort to graduate in January, I was told 99% graduates passed the NCLEX. I haven't seen the scores myself but the school is making changes to improve the outcomes. Just know since this is a hybrid program you will be doing a lot of self teaching. If you never have taken a online class, it's a lot. We get between 4-6 chapters to read a week, 4-6 quizzes and at least 24-31 assignments a week on top of four lectures a week online (teams) that last between 1.5-2 hrs each. 
If your a LVN you will do well, but you have to stay on top of your homework. 
All honesty, if you have dreams of working at a magnet hospital or any hospital, you won't get the clinical experience you need. But you will get your license as soon as 4 weeks after Graduation, and then you can endorse your license to work in California. It's a faster way of getting to where you want, and then it's all on the job training. 
good luck.

ACEN requires it to be listed on the school site!!

Recent scores are at 63 percent on the FBON site. I guess that is why it is not on the school site.

If the NCLEX pass rate is 99% why make changes? Yep make changes when it is 63%!

We just spoke about this today in clinical one of my classmates was paranoid about it and so she called the ACen  and made sure that they were listed as accredited and then you can also see on the Florida Board of Nursing website that the school is fully accredited.  
also, if anybody else wants to know it's $1000 a month they do not offer any financial aid it's completely out of pocket you can do financing with a particular company that they work with but the interest rates are high. It's better to just finance your own loan I do believe that the military will pay the tuition for the school.  You will spend a significant time away from your family. 
MedSurg fundamental clinical and psych require 13 days of clinical Monday through Saturday not including Sunday. For example, I'm here for 16 days but I'll be at school for 13 of those. Days. 

MedSurg two with OB and pediatrics requires another 13 days at school. Capstone requires 17 days at school +7 days for residency week. You will spend a lot of money on your plane and accommodations and rental car but even with all of those expenses it is still cheaper than a California school and you can still work. If you're tired of waiting around to get into a nursing school via raffle in California, this is the school for you they take expired prerequisites and there's no TEAS examination.

The school is legitimate. We've all done the research.
