The Board has identified a nursing program operating under the name Erudite in Georgia without Board approval. Graduates of this program do not meet the educational requirements for nurse licensure in Georgia and will be ineligible to take the NCLEX examination.

Please be aware that completion of a non-traditional nursing program, such as Excelsior, that does not include a clinical component will require completion of a mandatory preceptorship prior to issuance of a nursing license.  

For further details, see O.C.G.A § 43-26-7 and Graduates of Non-Traditional Nursing Education Program document.
