California Excelsior graduate after 2003, pls help!

Nursing Students Excelsior

Published

Hello,

I am a current Excelsior College student (all exams and FCCA completed) preparing for CPNE. My problem is that due to my husband's job, our family has relocated to California which no longer accepts EC graduates due to lack of clinical hours provided by EC. I do hold a current CA LVN license.

Are there any EC graduates after 2003 that live in CA that was able to become an RN in CA? If so, what did you do to get around this situation?

I am so close to finishing my RN education and this is a great opportunity for my husband, but I don't want to remain an LVN/LPN, so does anyone have any ideas to get around this (other than leaving my husband, because I still like having him around :))

Thanks

I dont understand? Is this how many hours California wsnts before applying for reciprocity. I was under the impression that they review excelsior applicants on a case by case basis.

The denied me based on the school. I have been a working licensed RN since 2009 so I am appealing. I feel like it's more just a situation of a application processor denying me and not the board. We will see fingers crossed
