Failed out of nursing school at the last term. Which schools will take my credits?

[Lexus L.]

I failed out in my last term by 2 points. I called ICHS and they said no. Does anyone know any schools that will accept nursing transfer credits?

Nope.

It probably depends on which kind of program you are in. I know schools around me will take transfers if the curriculum matches and they have space. You'd probably just finish the last section with that school if possible, but that could be hard since they usually require a certain amount of credits at their school to get a degree from them. Doesn't hurt to reach out and ask though!

I've read time and time again on these forums how people failed out of one program and then did awesome in the next program.  

Leads me to wonder if nursing education is really as standardized as we think it is.. 

(full disclosure, no judgment, I failed peds two semesters ago)

 Do you mind sharing what was the caused of it?

I will own my part, I had developed shortcuts that got me through the transition class, pharm 1/2, and med surg but failed me miserably in Peds.  That said, I do still feel that there was a mismatch in what the curriculum seemed to focus on compared to what was on the exam.  I have talked to others who felt the same.

I am in the Seattle area, but the schools I looked at were all around Washington.

I see. Thank you for sharing.

There are a few schools in Florida that will let you transfer, you have to call and ask them. There's two I know that allowed transfers in the past it won't hurt to call and ask. Azure college and Medical Prep Institute.

I called Azure but they are not enrolling. I think I called medical prep institute and it didn't seem to work.

I don’t know if any nursing programs in the NJ/NYC area that accept transfer nursing credits. You can transfer gen ED questions in but that’s about it
