Chancellor's/Regent College for RN?

Published

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. ;)

Peachesncream,

I once heard that you can get everything you need from Excelsior, via study guides and such, not sure if this had changed.

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

How long ago did you graduate and how long did the program take you? Did you use Excelsior's course work etc. or go through a secondary program, like Rue? I am an LPN and I had to challenge the A&P (GASP!) and passed. Still plugging along.........

be aware that all lpn-adn programs lead back to excelsior college, as they are the only accrediated college that you can get your degree through. you can get all your books etc. from them versus paying for the same stuff through the other programs. consumer beware!

The study guides for each of the NC tests can be downloaded from the Excelsior website http://www.excelsior.edu. The guides also give an up to date listing of the recommended references for the tests.

The best references I've found for the tests are NCLEX prep books. One person posted on this site that these were the only references he used. You can find used books on half.com and other book websites. You can also find used versions of the various study guides put out by the publishers. People sell these at a fraction of what they paid for them when they signed up with the publishers. Be warned, though, that some people have complained that they didn't find these study guides to be useful, so be wary.

I'm an RN that did the Excelsior (regents) program. I would love to answer any questions Re: the program. I'm currently working on my BSN via Excelsior.

did you use any of the publishing companies, rue,moore,chancellors?was the clinical hard?

I just looked at excelsior's website for their msn program. Currently they offer an msn for Nurse Education Specialist and Nurse Management.
