In Orland Park, Illinois, ITT-Tech's Associate Degree RN program enters its 3rd year of probation. The state nursing board has the power to revoke approval of the program.
Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation released its latest report yesterday. http://www.idfpr.com/Forms/DPR/NurseSchools.pdf
ITT-Tech's most recent pass rate, for nursing program graduates taking their licensing exam for the first time, is the lowest of all 45 associate degree programs listed in the report.
"If 2 years after implementing the strategies to correct deficiencies in the program the annual pass rate is less than 75%, the program will be reevaluated. The program will be allowed to continue to operate on a probationary status or will be disapproved and removed from the list of Illinois approved nursing programs in accordance with 68 Ill. Adm. Code 1110."
Orland Park's nursing program pass rates for the past 3 years are 61% (20123), 43% (2014), and 52% (2015). The campus website does not mention probation, so hopefully prospective students are checking the nursing board website!
