I am trying to inquire about the legitimacy of this ASN program. Im kinda skeptical about this program because they are like a "middle man." The degree is awarded by Excelsior college but why is a middle man needed? Am i able to go to a RN to BSN program if i do this ASN program with Chansellors? Is there anyone out there that had difficulty trying to get into a BSN program? Is this ASN degree nationally recognized?

My advice is...DO NOT waste your money on Chancellor's, Rue or any of those other programs. I met a lot of people that spent thousands of dollars on those programs and some got ripped off by these type of programs. You can get FREE study guide outlines from Excelsior College. You are correct, the degree comes from Excelsior, and they even tell you not to spend your money on those outside programs! I did Excelsior several years ago and didn't use any of thoseoutside programs. I got a lot of help from the study groups on yahoo. You can go to http://WWW.Excelsior.edu and get information directly on their nursing program.
I have worked in several states with my RN license and never had a problem with it. I know there were a few states that didn't accept Excelsior students for initial licensure, but I am sure that has changed now. If you have anymore questions feel free to write me! I am proof that it is a legitimate program. I was an LPN for over 20 years, and thanks to Excelsior , I have been working as an RN for the last 5 years~ Good Luck!
