Just tell me flat out if I am out of luck :)

Ok, I tell myself that I am just going to focus on something else, but I keep coming back to the thought of one day being a nurse. I have a 3.2 GPA at a technical college for the LPN program and less that at a 4 year college. With a GPA of 3.2, do I have any chance whatsoever of getting into an LPN program? If so then WHERE???? Doesn't anyone know of some secret school out in the boondocks where there is no competition?

Don't give up!!! I am in the same boat as you and I refuse to give up on locating a school. Some how some way I am Going to a NURSE!!! STAY STRONG, KEEP SEARCHING!:roll

Your best bet would be to find a vocational tech school, that is where I went for my LPN, your acceptance was based on Net scores and interview. Your college or highschool scores did not come into focus. Vocational school or programs are referred to as BOCES in NY, in fact some highschools offer LPN to h.s. students. Do they offer LPN to highschool students in Georgia, maybe some of these highschools offer continiung adult programs as well.

Ouch, that really sucks. Where do you live if you don't mind me asking? I live in Mass/New Hampshire and thankfully there are a few LPN schools around my area so I don't have to drive that far. I'm not even sure if I want to go on for my RN once (or if) I get accepted into LPN school....it's getting harder and harder even just to get a spot on the waiting list for the RN schools here.

I live in Queens, New York. We do have public transportation in our city that never sleeps, but, that can also be hard on the body because the clinical sites verses the school can be a considerable difference, and parking can be very costly.
