I know several nurses who have graduated from the Excelsior Program.

One of my co-workers is presently an Excelsior student.

One of my Co-workers graduated 3 years ago and was just promoted to RN-Supervisor.

One of my Co-workers (PRN) is a nurse manager of an ICU unit at his full-time job.

So there are plenty of people who graduate from this program. I thought about it but my husband and I are not disciplined enough to do it therefore we decided against it after getting the material and attempting to study.

I tooo feel your pain. After getting the run around with every school in our area with take this and that before you take this you'll need that etc etc. We have be accepted into a program in a neighboring state within one and a half hour driving distance. Sounds crazy but I would rather drive an hour and a half to school for 11 months and have my RN rather than wait with all these stupid waiting list and etc.

This school we are accepted into recognizes we are NURSES and since we met requirements toook the challenge exam and passed we were in.

Good Luck in your search.
