The Berry College nursing program has been granted full approval by the Georgia Board of Nursing through 2020.

In May, 28 students received Bachelor of Science in Nursing degrees. By Aug. 1, 100 percent of the graduates had passed the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX) for registered nurses. The class average first-time pass rate is 93 percent.
