Hi guys. I just graduated from my LPN program yesterday and I start in a hospital PCU on Monday. I have taken NC1 already and have all my prereqs done for my ADN, but I have to forward my transcripts to EC in order to become enrolled. My question is silly, but I cannot find the address online to send my transcripts to. I have sent them once to their physical address and they still show as not being received. I have called and left msgs and emailled 2x now. I really want to get started on NC3 asap, but Im stuck for now. Does anyone know the PO Box to send transcripts to???

Thanks if advance!!

Your schools have to farward official copies directly, no?

No. You can send a sealed official transcript. My old school, USF in Tampa would not send it to them for me. They sent me an official copy sealed with the school emblem and I forwarded it on my own.

You might be better off waiting until they're open tomorrow so you can call and speak to someone. If I'm understanding you correctly, you're not enrolled yet; therefore NC3 is no longer "NC3" -- they've revised the curriculum if you enroll after October 1st. Also, I'm not sure if they'll accept your NC1 if you took it and didn't enroll before October 1st ... I've heard some students say they have to take the revised test.

In any case, in the current undergraduate application, it states:

"Mail your completed application, payment, and all official documents to:

Student Accounting Office

Excelsior College

7 Columbia Circle

Albany, NY 12203-5159"

So it doesn't sound like there is a PO box for mailing stuff. I'd probably give them a call tomorrow -- sounds like the quickest way to get the answers you need!

I know...I mailed them to that address (Im positive)

but, my transcript status still shows that they have not received them. I was told by a nurse at the hospital I just finished clinicals at that she had to send hers to a PO Box. It is very possible that they just havent processed them yet. It has been 2 months though.

Thanks
