go to the florida board of nursing site:
http://www.doh.state.fl.us/mqa/nursing/nur_faq.html
on the frequent questions it says:
q: can i apply for a nursing license in florida if i graduated from regents (excelsior) college?
a: licensed practical nurses who had integrated clinical and theory in their practical nursing program, and subsequently graduated from regents (excelsior) college, may apply for licensure in florida. non-lpn's may apply only if they were enrolled in the regents (excelsior) college program on or before august 10, 1994.
also georgia will only issue a license by reciprocity for excelsior graduates.
since you are already an rn there should be no problem but contact the board of nursing for any clarification.
Thank you for your response, it certainly answered my question. Ahttp://www.doh.state.fl.us/mqa/nursing/nur_faq.html
