Excelsior Questions

[sarahk311989]

Hello all,

I'm new to this site, but I've read a ton of good advice thus far. I am debating starting the LPN-RN program at Excelsior within the next few months. I have all of the pre-requisites done already. I am concerned about how long I've been told the wait time can be for the CPNE. Has anyone had any experience with this? The woman I spoke with first told me there was no wait and then today I was told it averages out to be 7-9 months. Also, has anyone used the Post 9/11 GI Bill to attend Excelsiors nursing program? I was wondering how it work (what it pays for). Any other information/opinions would be greatly appreciated.
