Wondering if anyone knows. When Excelsior College seperated from the NY Board of Regents in '98 to become an independent institution, did they become a private college? Generally speaking, independent and private are not the same thing. Is Excelsior a "state school"?
Excelsior is private. This is from the guide to credit by examination: In 1998, the Board of Regents granted the College (then known as Regents College) an absolute charter to operate as a private, independent college.
