@Lucas @MiraJo - nothing's happened yet :) I'm still taking classes. Because I work full time on 48/96's with two young kiddos - and don't plan on leaving my current position at the FD I've only been taking one class every 8 weeks. I won't start my provisional license nonsense and all that for another year. Sorry I'm not much help just yet :(

Thanks Emtpbill - my only concern really is that 500 hours and what else I'll need to do specifically for the state of Texas. I'm reading that I need to provide a self study report to the state? No idea how to do that. I guess I'm just hoping to find someone here in Texas that has recently gone through the school and can help guide me on what the state will require. When I contacted Excelsior and asked these questions, I was given the 'well - that's a state specific thing so you need to contact the State of Texas Board of Nursing....'

Not sure how much luck I will have with this (1) being New Years day, and (2) finding anyone that fits the question that's also still active on here. But has anyone recently gone through the Excelsior nursing program as a Medic out of Texas. I'm trying to get more information on the final outline I need to have mapped out. I'm supposed to start their program on 1/10/22. But now I'm having second thoughts. I've been seeing facebook posts and such about not being able to graduate due to covid? I see that once we're done graduating and take the NCLEX we have a provisional license until we complete 500 clinical hours. But I can't find ANY information online and haven't received an email back from the state in regards to how/where or time frame of completion requirements for that 500 hours. Has anyone gone through this recently? And did you have any issues with the CPNE? I heard they suspended the ability to take them and its a 6-14 month wait? Thank ya much and Happy New Year!
