  1. Excelsior College or College Network

    One thing to know is that you can do the ISU LPN-BSN without TCN if you can do the legwork on your own. As you will see all throughout here is that TCN will only give you study materials (and possibly...
  2. Indiana State University BSN students

    Isn't April B. the TCN/ISU coordinator? When I received emails from her, she stated that I had to use TCN but when I spoke with someone else, I was told that I didn't have to use TCN but they weren't...

    The way ISU explained it to me was that, yes, I could do it without TCN but the 4 CSM's I would have to get from TCN because they can't be found anywhere
  4. Indiana State University BSN students

    Ok, I am having a tough time knowing where to start. I need all of my pre-req's and am going to go through ISU without TCN. They have ENG 107, PSY 101, CHEM 100 and 100L or higher level chem course,...

    given the circumstances, wouldn't you be a little concerned about an affiliation with tcn? maybe they realized that it might be a problem.
  6. Excelsior College or College Network

    I would like to say the one good thing TCN did for me was to give me the worksheet for LPN-BSN so now I know what I will need in regards to pre-reqs. But they listed next to those where I could get...

    I'm sorry, I can't speak for other states. BON rep stated that I had to test in Indiana and endorse over to Missouri. I guess that might be a good question for your BON. Or if there are any nurses...

    I want to apologize, I have contacted Missouri BON again and was told that, yes, they are accredited through Missouri but I would have to take my boards in Indiana and transfer my license to Missouri....

    Chaxanmom - do you recall where you got this list from? I found the post *thank you* but I'm confused, I contacted the Missouri BON and they said it wasn't approved, but this list says that it is. I...

  13. Currently Enrolled Excelsior Students

    So are you starting from scratch (LPN) or do you already have some of the electives done? I am just an LPN with no electives. Am sending my application when I get my transcripts from LPN (next week...

  16. Currently Enrolled Excelsior Students

    All-As an LPN for 14 years, I have worked in LTC, public health and currently manage an Internal medicine practice. Do you feel that this clinical experience will be right for CPNE? Or do I need to...
  17. Indiana State University BSN students

    Just wanted to give some info to anyone considering ISU from Missouri. I just received an email through the BON stating that they do not allow ISU but do allow EC. I am disappointed because I really...

    Is this working well for you? This is what I would like to do but haven't found anyone that has specifically done
  19. Indiana State University BSN students

    Chaxanmom (or others) - is there a reason (maybe you posted earlier and I missed it) why you decided to go with ISU vs. Excelsior LPN-RN? My big concern with ISU is the clinicals. Not the skills,...

    Lunah - you seem to have a lot of the answers for EC, can you answer this for me? I'm not sure where to start if I use EC without TCN. Thanks in
  21. Currently Enrolled Excelsior Students

    I have been considering ISU for the LPN-BSN program, but as I am seeing this thread, I am really wondering if I should do LPN-RN first through excelsior. If I have no pre-req's, should I do my clep...

    Also, for the CLEP tests. Do you feel that the study guides they provide to be sufficient to
  23. Indiana State University BSN students

    I have found that I can probably do most of my phase I without the help of TCN but when I get to Phase II, do I need them for the 4 CSM's? When I called ISU, the rep told me that they are the only...
  24. Indiana State University BSN students

    In regards to ISU. I know that the fee that I am paying TCN goes for phase I and II but is phase III strictly through standard means (student loans, grants, etc.?) through the college? Oh and...
  25. Slap In The Face
