Outcomes

NCLEX-RN pass rates by year

Board-reported first-time pass rates for Sandhills Community College, each shown with the cohort size it was calculated from. Candidate-weighted average across 2 reporting periods: 95.7% over 94 candidates.

Sandhills Community College's latest reported year is 2026, and that 97.62% — from a cohort of 42 first-time candidates — is 10.9 points above the 86.7% national first-time NCLEX-RN pass rate NCSBN reported for 2025.

Source: state board of nursing publications, transcribed per cohort. Cohorts under 10 candidates are suppressed rather than shown. A quarter range next to a year means the board edition covered only that part of the year, so those rows are not directly comparable with full-year rows.

Admissions at Sandhills Community College

Competitive.

• Admission rate / acceptance rate (%)

• TEAS / HESI thresholds
• Sandhills requires the HESI A2 (Admission Assessment) exam for ADN applicants (the TEAS is not mentioned).
• The test must be taken on campus; scores from elsewhe
