    I know you werne't asking me and I don't live in PA, but just wanted to make sure you know that in order to get an RN with Excelsior you have to be or have done one of these three things: be an LPN, completed and passed 50% of a traditional nursing ...
  2. A girl I met at my CPNE had failed her traditional nursing program during her last semester (BSN) so she ended up going with Excelsior, but she had completed and PASSED 50% of the program. As long as you passed 50% of it, I don't think they care abou...
  3. Pedi PCA

    How about going to one of the 'other' private nursing programs (affiliated with the hospitals)? Especially since you are now working at one of them you can probably get the auxiliary scholarship. They also do tuition reimbursement. Just a suggestio...
  4. Pedi PCA

    Honestly, no. I think just go for RN right from the get go, especially if you want to work at the hospital where you are starting your new job (trying not to name the name) after you graduate. I know they are getting away from hiring LPN's. Not that...

  10. online nursing program

    Hi there. I completed and passed 50% of a traditional nursing program. During my second semester I found out about Excelsior (http://www.excelsior.edu) and decided to enroll after completion of 2nd semester traditional program. It has been so much b...
  11. Thinking about Excelsior

    Or if you're like me, you can send EC all of your outlines and objectives from your previous nursing courses and have the chance to get NC1 and NC2 waived. I took NC1 before I knew this, but I did get NC2 waived. I was shocked that they waived it, bu...

  14. I am hoping to have a graduation date of June 16th with EC, but I will have finished all school requirements by the end of April. The internship for the unit I want to work in are only started two times during the year. They are June and January (for...
  15. Any Excelsior program nursing students out there??

    I am a nursing student with EC. I have completed NC1 and NC3. I take NC4 next week. I called the MO BON a few months ago and they assured me that Excelsior is accepted. Good luck to you! Melissa
