   No, there is nothing else you can do, Sorry. I'm starting their program at the end of this month. Entrance is completely based on GPA. If you did well with your last 12 credits, you should be fine. I think my GPA for the last 12 credits was a 3.8...

   I don't know where you are located, but Minnesota has a nice LPN program. The lectures are online and clinicals are done in person. You can check them out at http://www.distance.minnesota.edu Good luck.

5. Looking for an LPN program...help please??

   L&D_2b replied to sarahlpnwannabe's topic in General Nursing

   I've never heard of it (but I live in PA). However, why not check with your state board of nursing about their NCLEX pass rates? That will help you to decide if it is a program you might like to attend. Not all practical nursing programs are found ...

   txakolina, Thanks so much for the info. This might sound dumb, but did you have classes on August 25 or you left Wisconsin that day? I'm trying to figure out whether to apply to the October cohort or the May one. I really don't want to miss the "f...

   L&D_2b replied to JCBJLT's topic in Wisconsin

   When about did you have "bootcamp" during the month of August? Was it the beginning of August or the end? I'm applying to the program as well and I would hate to miss my kids first days of school if I get in. Also, did you stay on campus? Did most...

    Wow, we have a great deal in common. Even right down to the 4 kids! I actually though I wrote this post for a minute. I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who didn't enjoy teaching. --Marci

12. RUE and NAPNES to start online LPN program

    L&D_2b replied to L&D_2b's topic in Online Learning

    The news articles explain the procedure. The lecture portion is online, while the clinicals are on site. I guess it should be called a "hybrid" program because clinicals are still done in person. However, it is a more flexible program because the...
