Greetings everyone;Newbie to this site but been an LPN since 2000. I just started this past week my first course with Excelsior. I am hoping to have all the gen ed classes completed by Jan 2016 and start my nursing theory classes by then. Any tips will be greatly appreciated. I am also looking for a study partner . Good luck everyone with their studies!!

Oct 27, 2014 Are you planning on taking 8 or 16 week classes for all of your pre-reqs? You do know that it's possible to get the bulk of this program behind you by the summer, with motivation, right? I'm just wondering if you are aware of the current options now, that will be gone forever next July.
