"Direct licensure: All graduates enrolled on or before December 5, 2003 may apply for RN licensure.
Endorsement: All graduates who enrolled on or after December 6, 2003 may apply for endorsement of their RN license and will be considered by the California Board of Nursing on a case-by-case basis. The board is seeking evidence of 1000 hours of RN practice and will consider graduates who were LPN/LVNs prior to and during enrollment. Excelsior College has not received direct information from the Board regarding criteria for endorsement."

Possibly. I hear it's on a case-by-case basis. You should contact the board directly for clarification. Good luck!
