excelsior RN to BSN program

Hi all,

I'm new here and am planning to start excelsior bsn ASAP. I already completed my

ASN through them in 2007. I have a few questions if anyone is willing to share

their knowledge/experiences.

What books do you use to study the material from? Are there college network

books for each of the core nursing component courses, or did you use traditional textbooks? If so, where should I go

to obtain them? I searched on eBay n amazon ddnt come up with any results. Maybe

I'm not searching right?....

Also, what is the HAPE? I just printed out all the info on their BSN program and

ddnt see anything regarding this as a requirement or what it is...

All it says is you have to take the capstone course to graduate. Is this

anything like the CPNE??

How are the web ct courses? Alot of writing/discussions/deadlines? I believe I read something about havng to submit a video??

Sorry, I know it's alot of questions at once. Any and all info you can provide

would be great as I'm a little confused and rethinking if I should start this

program or not.

Thanks again in advance!
