Please accept graduates of the Excelsior College school of Nursing in Virginia. The school is excellent. The standards are high, and the determination to complete the coursesand CPNE should speak for the quality and character of the nurse. I found the Excelsior program to be MORE CHALLENGING AND MORE DIFFICULT TO PASS  than the traditional programs offered in my area. The convenience of self-pace study is an  extremely important aspect when working parents what to further their eduaction. I worked one full-time and one part-time job(both nursing) while paricipating in the program and am now enrolled in the RN-MSN program . I know that I wouldn't be where I am today, if not for the opportunity to study at Excelsior College. Please consider accepting graduates to sit for the NCLEX in Virginia.  

Sincerely,

K Sacksteder, RN
