While people who post on this board can tell you their personal experiences, you MUST call the Board of Nursing yourself to find out the current law.

Last I heard, Illinois does NOT recognize Excelsior college grads until they have been licensed in another state for two years. I also heard that there may be some movement within Illinois to recognize Excelsior grads. Call the board at 312-814-4500 to get the scoop.
