Luck with Excelsior?

Hi, I'm an LPN who graduated from an Arkansas college, and I still live and practice in Arkansas. I am looking for an online LPN to RN program, and have not been able to find any info from people who have graduated from Excelsior. Can anyone help me out with telling me about your experience? How were the classes, clinicals, testing? Did it all go smoothly for you? Any feedback would be appreciated!

Hello and welcome to allnurses.com

Good luck and we hope you enjoy allnurses.com

There are no clinicals, just the CPNE at the end (a 3 day skills/documentation test). Classes, well, you can do the self study and test out or actual online classes (don't know much about those, it is a newer thing they are doing).

You need to be self motivated and driven. If you do the self study, you have no real deadlines, so if you procrastinate, it can take a long time. The online classes would help if you have motivation issues.

I'm doing an online class now, and so far it's not bad. I'm also doing my math through ALEK and getting ready to test out of A&P. So far it's not a bad option, especially considering 1) I'm too impatient to wait for a program to open up near me (I need to finish pre-reqs) and 2) I work an odd schedule that doesn't lend itself to school or clinicals.
