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

Published

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?

Specializes in Occupational Health.

The majority of nursing programs will not accept transfer of nursing class credits.  Most programs/organizations will accept transfer of generalized pre-req classes if they are determined upon evaluation to be equivalent to courses being offered at the accepting college/institution.

Reach out to Excelsior college and ask if they'll consider some if not all of the credits. Excelsior college LPN Bridge program have change to online and clinical weekends, no more 3 day CPNE. Don't give up looking, just because we don't know doesn't mean it's not possible there's a school that would accept.

I called Medical Prep today. They are approved by the state and are a better choice I think instead of Ideal wgo are oj probation. Their phone number is 8139321710

I'm pretty sure I spoke to Medical prep and they weren't allowed to enroll students from my state (NY).

Lex - no offense meant here, but I think you're grasping at straws. You keep trying school after school to see who might accept your credits. Like you just want to waltz in, hand some school your transcript and hope they'll just pass you along. Not to mention that they're less-than-desirable/reputable, bottom of the barrel schools; some who seem to be existing just by the film on their teeth! Not like they're NYU, Georgetown or Penn or other state/Nat'l approved programs.

People here are telling you that IT AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN THAT WAY!

Bottom line is NOBODY ACCEPTS SOMEBODY ELSE'S NURSING CREDITS! You likely can get by with some selected science, arts & humanities, electives. But nsg credits are the 'meat & potatoes' of each nsg school's curriculum - a BIG part of the core upon which that school is graded for approval, accreditation & licensure. And all those other schools just don't measure up!

Do yourself a favor - talk with a counselor, or 2, or 3 at good schools. And just resign yourself that you're likely going to have to retake nsg credits. Sorry, not easy pill to swallow.

Wishing you good luck as you move on.

Where did you end up going to and did any school let you use the ICHS classes?
