* Target scores do not have to be met in order to be considered for acceptance in the Practical Nursing (PN) program.
* Scores in the mid-70 range and higher are predictive of program acceptance and success. However, scores in this range do not guarantee acceptance. Scores are reviewed annually and are, therefore, subject to change based on current ATI® data.
