Info On Lpn To Rn


I would like to see if anyone has any info on any LPN TO RN programs online. I have been an LPN for just about 3 years and would like to go back and get my RN but the way I work it just about makes it impossible unless I do it online but all the courses I have seen on the internet were for RN's only. Anyone know of any programs? Help me, please.

Excelsior is a good one, and I believe Deaconess now has a LPN-RN program, too. Just make sure you sign up with an actual school, and not a publishing company. These 2 schools are very reputable, and I am also a KY'ian, so I know the KBON accepts degrees from both. Good luck to you! It's a great wat to get your RN if you want to continue to work while you finish.

I had heard of Excelsior but the one that I contacted seems like it was a publishing company. Do you know what the web address is? What part of KY are you in? I am in southeastern.

It's much, much cheaper if you deal with Excelsior direct. The web addy is posted above, but here is their ph # as well: 1-888-647-2388 ext. 1314 for the School of Nursing.

I'm in Louisville, BTW
