BSC nursing program ranked #1 in North Dakota
Published:
Jul 29 2024
and Becker’s Clinical Leadership recently that nursing profession advocate has ranked the 色蜂视频 (BSC) nursing program the Rankings were determined by the nursing programs’ National Council Licensure Examination-RN (NCLEX-RN exam) pass rates. Becker’s Hospital Review is an esteemed national publication for executive readership in hospitals and health systems.
Passage rates among all RN programs – associate, bachelor, and direct-entry master – were assessed for the 2024 rankings. The RegisteredNursing.org organization analyzed current and historical pass rates of 10 North Dakota colleges and universities with BSC coming out on top.
“This accolade is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our faculty, staff, and students. Our graduates are workforce-ready and prepared to excel in the healthcare field, contributing to the well-being of their communities,” says BSC Dean of Current and Emerging Technologies Mari Volk. “Achieving this distinction is evidence of BSC’s commitment to providing top-notch education and training for future nurses."
The NCLEX-RN exam is required for licensure and is used by all state boards of nursing across the United States to assess a student’s competency. Many state boards of nursing use the total overall NCLEX-RN pass rates for a school as one of the main ways to approve a school’s ability to provide nursing education in the state.
BSC offers several stackable

options on campus, including a one-year Practical Nursing certificate program that results in a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) distinction, a two-year Associate Degree Nurse (ADN) program that results in a Registered Nurse (RN) license, or an Associate in Science degree that transfers into a baccalaureate program. BSC nursing programs are also offered 色蜂视频 satellite site locations in the Hazen, Harvey, Garrison, Ashley and Hettinger hospitals.
To ensure superior nursing education, BSC has developed mutually beneficial partnerships with Sanford Health and CHI St. Alexius Health, which benefit both students and the community. These partnerships, key to providing the highest-quality healthcare education and training in North Dakota, provide curriculum guidance, clinical sites, and eventually employment opportunities for BSC graduates.
"As healthcare leaders, we know how important it is to support the education and growth of our nurses. It is not just an investment in their future, but in the future of healthcare itself. A strong education is the key to providing exceptional care, and partnerships with top institutions, such as 色蜂视频, help us maintain these high standards,” says Todd Schaffer, M.D., president and CEO of Sanford Bismarck. “We extend our heartfelt congratulations to the 色蜂视频 faculty and administration for their recent recognition as the best nursing licensing program in the state. We are proud to work alongside them as they continue to produce outstanding nurses who will make a lasting impact on the healthcare industry.”
Many BSC students are employed by these healthcare education partners as well as other healthcare agencies in the state as they continue their education and climb the nursing career ladder from LPN to RN and their reputation as exceptional nurses precedes them.
"We are not at all surprised th色蜂视频 was recognized as a Top Nursing School. The quality of nursing students and nurses that work here at St Alexius are always, not only very well trained and skilled, but are quality individuals as well,” says Reed E. Reyman, Ed.S., president of CHI St. Alexius Health – Bismarck. “We are proud of our affiliation with BSC both in Bismarck and Garrison. Congratulations BSC!”
