I don't think you should. I just meant if they wouldn't accept the course that you have taken there may be an Excelsior exam that you can take and pass (since you already have had the material). Good luck.

Call and talk to a counselor to find out why. Can you take an exam for Psyc Lifespan?

Generally online courses are the same as on campus courses. Some charge a moderate technology fee. Each college is different. I have seen some who charge their online students in-state tuition rates no matter where they live. The important thing is t...

Nurses must look out for themselves or no one else will. By speaking as a voice they can get more accomplished. Nurses who have a feeling that they have some control over their career and practice are less likely to leave their place of employment an...

Rue is not associated with Excelsior College. Excelsior provides their own study guides which many students find adequate. Some students have said they like Rue but is is expensive and you have to sign a long contract. Rue doesn't have an inside trac...

I have worked at 2 union hospitals, one was great and the other OK. The thing about a union is that the officers are your co-workers and how the union works depends on the officers and the members taking an interest in and supporting the union. Most ...

Companies that advertise associations with Excelsior are usually private publishing companies that are selling study supplies. Many students feel what Excelsior suggests for free is perfectly adequate. These companies have helped some but are expensi...

HI, I am new to this group. I live in Old New Castle and graduated from nursing school in 1978. Never worked at Christiana Care but Riverside Hospital, St. Francis, Crozer, and the state hospital (twice). Fortunately for me I am teaching online full ...

Another option is onine RN/BSN/MSN programs. It doesn't matter where you live. The important thing is that they be regionally and nursing accredited.

It is your body so go for whatever makes you happy. I am wondering why? Some men report that they lost some sensation after the procedure. I have heard that the extra skin provides extra pleasure and sensation to both partners. Uncircumcised men are ...

Where you earn the credits is up to you. They will help you once you are enrolled. As the previous poster mentioned EC has their own tests that you can take. These are called equivalency exams. There are other exams besides EC and CLEP is the most we...

It is because we have a sense of control. We must be treated fairly whether administration wants to or not.

I worked at a hospital for 10.5 years that was unionized. Management was forced to treat us fairly and with respect. Besides good wages and benefits we had a mature contract which meant we had extra benefits slipped in each contract negotiation. For ...

The good news is that there are many online choices now that you are not limited to your local area. With so many choices you can shop around to see who gives the most credits for your diploma and nursing experience. Some may allow portfolios to demo...

There are many online MSN programs available in several majors as well as online programs in healthcare related majors. When I was doing research for my book I was surprised to see that nursing was embracing online degrees. The most important thing h...

The only LPN to RN program similar to what you are mentioning is Excelsior College which has been discussed at length on other threads. They are not online but a distance program. You study on your own with the study guides furnished by the college. ...

Canyon is not accredited by any organization that is approved by the Department of Education (Washington) including nursing either. My only advice is to complete your ASN and find a good accredited online BSN completion program (or a local program). ...

Sorry, that I don't know. I assume they have a time limit from when you first register until you have completed the program.

Call and find out what you can do. I am sure if you pay your outstanding fees and the next payment up front they would reinstate you.

What a can of worms you are reopening ASNs and BSNs make approximately the same salary. It is great to start out as an ASN with the goal of completing at least a BSN especially if you are young and have a long career ahead of you. Most higher level...

There are a lot of choices for online RN/BSN programs now so if you would like the flexibility of online courses that is a good choice. Local colleges are also making it easier for RNs to obtain a BSN with bridge programs. Both systems have good and ...

Is there a New Castle, PA? I live in New Castle, DE

Curious. Can't you apply for nursing school as part of your active duty. I am assuming the military is having a problem recruiting nurses too and I thought they had scholarships. Just a thought.

Actually meshing computers, research, and nursing is an upcoming field (Informatics). Please be aware that it is very difficult to finish a graduate degree once you have left it unfinished. Most graduate programs will only accept 6 very recent credit...
