Awards & Recognition
A South Florida nursing and allied-health college with accredited programs and licensure results to match. Every credential below is real and traceable to the body behind it.
In Q2 2023, every first-time test-taker from HCI’s West Palm Beach nursing program passed the NCLEX-RN — a 100% first-time pass rate, with the Fort Lauderdale campus at 91.67%. For a nursing school, the NCLEX is the measure that matters most, and it is reported per campus.
