Admission to EC Nursing?

[sacrdhazel]

Hi there..

I'm sure this has been answered 1000 times... please forgive me. :)

It says an applicant needs to have 50% of thier clinical nursing classes completed to apply. What does that mean? My college has 4 semester... 2 12 weeks semesters, and 2 semesters with 2 6-week semesters. So would 50% mean the 2 12-week semesters or 2 12-week semesters and 1 6-week semester? And are the specific about which courses to have taken?

The 12 week courses were Fundamentals and Med-Surg.

TIA!

Associate Degree programs typically require ~ 60 credits to graduate.

Having completed 30 credits required for degree would qualify one as completing one-half of the program.

i'd say you'd have to show half the clinical portion completed with passing grades on a transcript. i'd call excelsior and get it straight from them.
