required programoutcomes regarding licensure.  \n■ The NCLEX-RN®pass rate for each campus/site and track is provided for each of the threemost recent calendar years.  \n·The NCLEX-RN®pass rate for each campus/site and track is 80%or higher for first-time takersfor the most recent calendar year.However,if the NCLEX-RN®pass rate for any campus/siteand track is less than 80%for first-time takers for the most recent calendar year,(1)the passrate for that campus/site or track is 80%or higher for all takers (first-time and repeat)forthe most recent calendar year,(2)the pass rate for that campus/site or track is 80%or higherfor first-time takers when the annual pass rates for the three most recent calendar years areaveraged,or (3)the pass rate for that campus/site or track is 80%or higher for all takers(first-time and repeat)when the annual pass rates for the three most recent calendar yearsare averaged.  \nA campus/site or track with an NCLEX-RN⁸pass rate of less than 80%for first-time takers for themost recent calendar year provides a written explanation/analysis with documentation for thevariance and a plan to meet the 80%NCLEX-RN®pass rate for first-time takers.The explanationmay include trend data,information about numbers of test takers,data relative to specificcampuses/sites or tracks,and data on repeat takers.  \nThe graduate program demonstrates achievement of required program outcomes regardingcertification.Certification results are obtained and reported in the aggregate for thosegraduates taking each examination,even when national certification is not required to practicein a particular state.  \n·Data are provided regarding the number of graduates and the number of graduates takingeach certification examination.  \n■ The certification pass rate for each examination for which the program prepares graduates isprovided for each of the three most recent calendar years.  \n■ The certification pass rate for each examination is 80%or higher for first-time takers for themost recent calendar year.However,if the pass rate for any certification examination is lessthan 80%for first-time takers for the most recent calendar year,(1)the pass rate for thatcertification examination is 80%or higher for all takers(first-time and repeat)for the mostrecent calendar year,(2)the pass rate for that certification examination is 80%or higher

year provides a written explanation/analysis for the variance and a plan tomeet the 80%certification pass rate for first-time takers.The explanation may include trenddata,information about numbers of
