it is my understanding that once complete, we will possess an associate's degree...where it transfers to depends on the accepting college. i'm taking my microbiology and a&p classes with excelsior due to time constraints, but am finding that it will limit my eligibility to get into bsn programs without the lab credit of traditional science courses. i suppose the worst thing that will happen is i have to take a class or two over again, but there are options out there. at this point, what's a few more dollars spent! ha! i know lunah and sue have both went on to other colleges, but i don't know what their gen eds looked like. we'll figure it all out, i'm sure!

My credits transfered at my local university RN-BSN. I got exempt for the first class because they gave me credit for taking Transitions to professional nursing. I was so happy when I got my acceptace letter. I start class in a few weeks!

Chamberlain did. I really didn't run into many (or any?) that didn't recognize it.

I haven't run into issues with it.

An acquaintance of mine also had no problems with it as she progressed up to nurse practitioner, starting with an ASN from EC.

I am taking my CPNE next weekend then will have completed EC's ASN program. I have been checking into several RN-MSN and RN-BSN programs for the last year to see if my EC RN will transfer and I haven't found a school yet it wouldn't transfer to. I did find however 90% of them will not accept the A&P and micro due to no labs, but as someone previously posted worst situation I have to retake those 2 classes at a local community college. Hope that helps.
