The MSN program has a 100% pass rate on all national certification examinations throughout all program tracks since its founding in 1984. The BSN Program was the first program of its kind in the Lehigh Valley to award students baccalaureate degrees beginning in 1974. It is in that tradition that DeSales proudly presents the first - and only - Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree in Clinical Leadership in the Lehigh Valley.
