Chancellor's/Regent College for RN?

[davisll]

Is anyone out there considering or doing the ASN/ADN program through the Chancellors Institute/Regents College. If so what do you think about it? I am considering it, but would like to get some input on what anyone has heard about it. Thanks for your input.

I am considering going for my RN. I Would like to go thru a study at home program, being I have to work full time. Anyone out thier Know which is the best(RUE,Chancellors,College network,etc)as far as price,study guide vs actual testing

:nono:I made the mistake of signing on the dotted line with College Network ,save your money .You can go to e-bay and buy these study guides from all different companys. I have bought some text books off of ABEBOOKS.COM site .Some of the books prices start at $1.00+ shipping .I received Kosier 7th edtion from this site. I'm trying to get in gear to go test so I'm using all resources I can.I also have some of Lisa Arends study guides{she has a site on e-bay also and is a grad from Excelsior with A'S} Wish you well and me too!

Would you be able to tell me which states you heard that do not accept this program? I am wanting to begin this program but am unsure if my state accepts it. Thank you.

I would check with your state nursing board web site .

Just to let you know.... Received my transcript eval in mail today from Excelsior. They will accept 30 cr of my lower division classes, but will not accept my LPN (even though I am licensed and have practiced) as it was completed more than 5 yrs ago. Anybody found a way around this? Are all the LPN to RN programs this way. Doesn't make much sense to me. Looks like traditional schooling is the only way to go until I have my RN.

I'm doing the ADN program through Excelsior College. They gave me credit for having a valid LPN license in my state and knocked off one of the required tests, so I only had to take 7 tests instead of 8.
