Start over with WGU MSN or transfer credits to a non-RA MSN?

Not sure about nursing, but some of their masters programs allow 50% of the credits to be transferred.

I did check out Excelsior. They're quite a bit more pricey than WGU and ASU. In addition to the higher tuition cost, they have several seemingly unnecessary fees tacked on (enrollment fee, graduation fee, and excessively costly application fee). Also, a couple of their courses are 4 semester hour courses, and my equivalent courses were only 3 semester hours, so I doubt that I would be given the higher credit level.

I did use Excelsior for my ADN. It served a purpose, but I'm not a big fan of Excelsior by any stretch of the imagination.
