Am I eligible for licensure by Endorsement if I am an Excelsior graduate?

Since your nursing education program (Regents/Excelsior) did not include clinical experience, you would have to supply a copy of your LPN transcript and detailed work experience as a nurse (both LPN and RN) after you submit the application and fee for licensure. The Board is looking for evidence of concurrent theory and practice in “adult, maternal-child, and psychiatric nursing,” as required by the ABN Administrative Code. Each applicant is reviewed individually.  We do not prescreen, so we cannot tell in advance whether you will meet the requirements or not.

You should also refer to the following declaratory rulings regarding Excelsior graduates:
