Update, I do not think you need to appeal, just point them to the Excelsior 2008 Nursing Catalog, page 17, Point 4 under Written English Requirement, it cannot be any clearer then this. I would do this over the phone even.:
Quote:
Written English Requirement
The Excelsior College degree programs in nursing, at
both the associate and baccalaureate levels, include a
requirement in written English. Students must demonstrate
competency in expository writing in English in one of the
following ways:
1.
2.
3.
4.Completion of a noncollegiate sponsored instruction
course or program on writing that has been
evaluated by either the New York State Board of
Regents National Program on Noncollegiate
Sponsored Instruction (National PONSI) or the
American Council on Education (ACE) College
Credit Recommendation Service of the Center for
Adult Learning and Educational Credentials; is
recommended for at least 3 semester hours of
credits; and contains an actual assessment of competence
in expository writing in English
