Overall rating

We do not show a quantified score for Mount Vernon Nazarene University (Nursing Program) yet. As a private, nonprofit university it sets its own tuition and support model, and we check program quality, faculty, online support, real cost, and student outcomes against primary sources before scoring it. For now its first-time NCLEX index of 60.7 is one input we weigh, not a verdict. A made-up or perfect-looking rating is not something we publish.
