Thoughts on Excelsior

Published

Finally I have foud someone....lol

I have been trying to find an online nursing school, I am currently an LVN that lives in tx, I saw excelsior but I have been trying to find some information on it, at least from someone who has actually attended and graduated and past the NCLEX.

Are they expensive, I already have some student loans and not trying to add 20-30000 to it?

How were your clinicals, how long and where were they located?

is taking nursing online difficult,I have done online but NURSING is atotal different ball game...lol

how long did it take u to finish?

were you confident in taking the nclex after finishing?

Are they approved and accredited through the state of Tx?

If help was needed was anyone available?

Sorry or so many questions I just really need to get focused on back to school and going to a brick school right is kind of hard by working mon-fri so PLEASE HELP!!!!:nailbiting::yes::woot:

There are no clinical rotations. There is only a clinical proficiency exam after all classes/challenge exams are completed.

Find the Excelsior link on AN.

Long time grad here, but you generally self study and for the clinical part prove your abilities in 3 days. If you can be focused and be a self study person, it may be an avenue for you. Just make sure that it's accepted in your state.
