The nursing programs within Texas Wesleyan’s School of Health Professions are known for producing the next generation of practitioners who are ready to make a difference for their patients on day one. Nursing Schools Almanac has taken notice, ranking TXWES 28^th on its 2020 list of best nursing schools in Texas and 38^th on its list of best in the southwest.

Nursing School Almanac collected data from more than 3,000 institutions across the U.S, with only 20% making the list. Schools were ranked based on several factors including academic value, depth of programs and student success. First-time NCLEX (nursing licensure) exam pass rates were heavily considered as part of student success.

Nursing School Almanac noted that “the school’s MSNA graduates have achieved a 91% first-time pass rate on the NBCRNA (nurse anesthetist) certification exam over the past five years, with a stellar 99.6% pass rate within six months of graduation.”
