Hey I'm looking to apply to Widener and have been looking for graduate's opinions as well. but I was wondering if you also saw the email sent months ago that they are in a provisional approval status because of low NCLEX pass rates? I can attach or forward that email. It kinda had me iffy about applying in general.... Do you know if they're making any improvements to the program?

Widener well known school with good instructors. Over past 5 years, above 88% NCLEX pass rate, except for Sept. 2021 79.21%  -- just one class graduates, during COVID year.  US national average = 83%, not that far off.
