Distance Ed

I don't know how many finished. I was going to go through EC, but now I will look for other options.

I am getting ready to graduate from Excelsior and am caught up in this decision. Now I have to either try and fight ksbn or repeat this entire year over.

I got this from EC by email:

The deans are meeting with KS

on

Mar 15,16 and we'll know then* what we are up against. I would advise

waiting until then to make any decisions.

*I corrected a typo, changing "them" to "then"

I got a letter from KSBN with some good news. Current EC students can still get licenses if they complete clinical some way, they listed 2 possible ways:

1. Complete a clinical curriculum that meets the requirements (several KS ADN programs are in the process of developing the clinical component, they said).

2. Become a licensed RN in another state, and work at least 1,000 hours in that capacity, then apply to endorse to KS.

Well I'm frusterated. I really wanted to do Excelsior's program and it doesn't look like KS will allow it. I am currently an LPN and it is not possible to do a traditional program that I would have to attend 5 days per week and I'm an hour drive from the closest nursing school. Does anyone have any ideas/suggestions?

Hi, I am new to this but am happy thinking I might have found someone to help me!

I am now working as a MA no schooling but, have been trying to find a way to get my RN. Have to keep working full time, Have called so many places and been very discharged. I understand I have to start somewhere. But where, everyone I have talked with says we can not help you. Tried online classes, of course NOT in KS.

Please Help!!!
