LPN programs in Knoxville, TN?

[lsuter1]

I am currently enrolled as a Freshman at UT in Knoxville. I came into college with 4 gen ed requirements from a dual program through a community college and just finished my first semester here. I have been looking up information about LPN to RN programs and LPN programs in general. I have had my CNA certification since June 2011, right after I turned 16. My mother is also a nurse practitioner. I am looking for the cheapest and easiest route to get my RN. UTK is very expensive and if you don't get into the nursing program as a Freshman (I didn't), it is next to impossible to get in when you re-apply. I am trying to find a really good LPN program VERY close to Knoxville. I have already signed a lease for next fall. What LPN programs are around this area that you know of? I'm looking for one year programs or shorter. If you have any advice at all, please let me know!

Tennessee Technology Centers offer an LPN program that lasts just under a year and costs around 8K.
