States accepting ISU...I'm posting the list here.


I got this from Kim Cook the other day. It's the most recent list of states that accept ISU's distance program. I'm attaching and also cut n pasting. Can we please make this sticky?

It is scary that so many states do not accept ISU! Geez, I can't wait to enroll in an LPN-RN/BSN program such as ISU, but I'm a little worried about ISU vs. Excelsiors BON acceptance!

Why is it "scary"? The distance education track is a new program. Things take time. You aren't going to have all BONs accept it overnight nor are you suddenly going to have clinical sites in every hospital in every little town in the US.

I'm curious what the "pending" means.....

My state, Vermont, isn't on the list anywhere, and from what I gather from the BON, isn't going to be accepting a distance program anytime soon.

But New Hampshire is on the "pending" list, and that would be a possibility. Any ideas?

"Pending" means basically that they are working on it. I would imagine that means they've submitted the information to the BON and are waiting for approval?

There is no online degree that the state of CA accepts other than ISU. Suggest you look into their program or make plans to enter a traditional program near your home. Most schools will accept online courses taken at accredited schools for prerequisites, such as English or Psychology. You need to look at the specific requirements for the school(s) that you are considering and plan your school schedule accordingly. Contact the schools that offer nursing programs near you. They will be happy to provide you with this info.

Your best bet would be to call them and see where the process is in the state you are in.
