Require LVN time before RN

[GeauxNursing]

Can anyone tell me how much, if any, time/experience is required as an LVN before bridging to RN? I am looking toward the Excelsior or other online route. Thanks in advance!

hello,

excelsior is not a online school ,it is a self paced program. technically no lvn is required however, it is recommended. you need solid clinical and assessment skills in order to be able to complete the cpne sucessfully.
