LPN to RN program online??

HM7380 · Aug 15, 2008 02:49 PM

Some people I work with are looking into doing the lpn to rn bridge program online.

Has anyone done this? And if so, with any success and what company did you go with?

I'm interested in getting my RN asap (or BSN), but am in somewhat of a volatile relationship and stuck in Mississippi (bleck) and don't know how much longer I'll be here. I'd hate to get into the bridge program here in MS, then have to leave, and the online idea sounds scary, but promising...

Any ideas?

Indiana State University has an online LPN-to-BSN (RN) program.

Excelsior College offers a distance-based LPN-to-ADN (RN) program.

I've heard about both. How hard are they vs. regular nursing school? Does anyone know the fail/pass rate?

I'd love to know what people who have been through the program think...

Hello all out there I am new to this site . I am a licensed LVN in CA and want to go for the RN program. I have finished all my prereq with at least B . but the waiting list is gettting me frustrated. Anyone out there has a better advise on how to get to RN program by taking advantage of my LVN?
