Excelsior College is a great institution to obtain online degree at your own pace, especially if you are working adult. However, my experience is little sour in regards to thier class schedule which changes at the first day of class. In addition to canceling the class, some of the classes ...
Great!

After my review, I only had to take one class! It was only a one credit course so I was done early. I was in some trouble because if I didn't have a Bachelor's degree, I couldnt work. The advisors and other staff were very sympathetic to my needs and ...
Not For Busy Adults, but Great Education

I was matriculated into Excelsior hoping to get a second BS in a different area than my first degree. I chose BS-CIS. They accepted my undergrad courses and examinations that I took. So I had less than 10 courses to complete in order to get my degree. Between then and ...

Great college!
I earned my Bachelors of Liberal Studies after attending numerous online and on-campus programs. Excelsior made it easy to transfer over and showed me exactly what I needed to succeed. I applied and have been accepted to numerous colleges like OU, Liberty and North Carolina for graduate work. Excelsior College degrees do work and they are well respected.

Excelsior was a great experience. I needed 60 credits and completed in less than 3 months. Really top notch service (better than the traditional colleges I attended beforehand) and the degree is well regarded, Excelsior students have gone on to graduate studies at Ivy league universities and enjoy the special pride of demonstrating the knowledge they have gained independent of traditional classroom settings. I don't know of anyone who has anything bad to say about the place.

As a military member, I couldn't be more satisfied with Excelsior’s online program. Like most military members I jumped from school to school and duty station to duty station before I finally got serious with Excelsior. Excelsior accepted most of my pre-military college credits and the credits I earned while in the military. I was able to complete several classes either online or through Excelsior exams during and in between deployments to earn my BSL. Excelsior College was highly recommended by the representatives at the base college office where I am stationed and I highly recommend it to any working adult.

I recently completed the online MA in Liberal Studies Degree. It was a terrific experience. The teachers were positive and helpful. The education was on a par with any other I have taken at other traditional institutions of higher education.
I was an older student returning to school for the sake of knowledge. Excelsior fulfilled that goal.
I would recommend Excelsior College to anyone seeking a degree.

Congrats Rick on finishing you MALS degree. I completed my bachelors from Excelsior last August. I have been seriously considering their graduate program. I was able to take the graduate research writing course while being a undergraduate student. My only concern is the cost of the graduate program. Nevertheless, I love being a graduate of Excelsior.

Has anyone completed the BSN degree?
Tim May 15, 2008 at 12:21 a.m.
I am interested in their BSN program as well. I am curious if anyone has any comments about it. Is it worth it? Will their program prepare to work proficiently as a nurse? How long did it take?

Excelsior College actually has 28,000 enrolled students, not 7,000, and it was originally established in 1971 as Regents College. The name change to Excelsior College in 2001 reflected change in status from a state institution under the Board of Regents to a private, non-for-profit college.
