Two Adventist institutions emerged among the nation’s top-performing nursing schools in the 2025 Nursing Licensure Examination (NLE), reaffirming the mission of Adventist education in preparing compassionate and competent healthcare workers for the country and the world.
Based on the results released by the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC), the Adventist University of the Philippines (AUP) posted a 100 percent passing rate, with all 93 examinees successfully earning their nursing licenses. This performance placed AUP in the Top 1 group of schools with 50 to 99 examinees and at least an 85 percent passing rate.
Following closely, Mountain View College (MVC) in Valencia, Bukidnon secured the second highest ranking nationwide in the same category. MVC achieved a 98.94 percent passing rate, with 93 out of 94 examinees passing the exam. The college remains a consistent performer in national licensure examinations and continues to be recognized for its strong nursing program.
Adding to this year’s landmark achievements within the Adventist educational system, Central Philippine Adventist College (CPAC) also recorded outstanding performance in the PNLE. CPAC celebrated a 100 percent passing rate for first-time takers and an impressive 97.18 percent overall passing rate. This milestone affirms the college’s commitment to academic excellence, character development, and mission-focused training rooted in Adventist Christian education.
The strong showing of AUP, MVC, and CPAC places Adventist institutions among the country’s most reliable contributors to nursing education—an essential sector supporting both local and international healthcare demands. Administrators from all three schools expressed gratitude for the results, noting that the success reflects dedicated faculty preparation, student perseverance, and the Lord’s continued guidance.
Across the Southern Asia-Pacific region, Adventist schools continue equipping health professionals who not only excel in their fields but also embody Christ-centered compassion in their service. The 2025 PNLE results stand as a powerful reminder of the enduring role of Adventist education in shaping nurses who care, lead, and serve with integrity.
As these new nurses enter the workforce, Adventist institutions reaffirm their mission to uplift communities through education, service, and a steadfast commitment to sharing God’s love through compassionate healing.
