So can I take courses this way?


Can I take all my prerequistes with excelser then go to a lpn-rn bridge program? Or does excelser demand you do the entire study with them?

Most programs have their own specific classes that are required. As well as needing to meet x-number of hours in that shcool for them to grant you a degree. It is not going to benefit you at all.

The local college that started their bridge program This september said I could take online courses..and specifically I could take Excelcer courses and they would accept their credits. My question was more whether I could just take specific courses such as A&P I/II ect. I thought I may save time taking some of the courses online..thus speed up my schooling. After completing the schools requirements you then go from Sept to May, and graduate with your Associates degree..then take your boards obviously.
Thanks for replying tho...I'll ask the schools cooridinator specifically Monday.

Many community colleges offer on-line courses and for a much cheaper price.
I highly suggest that you go that route.

Be aware that schools require a specific amount of credits to be done thru their school for you to receive a degree from there. You mayhave to go and take more credits there to meet their requirements for getting a diploma from that particular school so you wouldn't be saving anything.
