Everest LPN- RN Bridge. Please help!!


Im currently enrolled at Everest for Jan 2010 LPN class. Does anyone know, once I graduate, which programs accept the PN certificate from Everest for their LPN-RN bridge programs?!? If you know, let me know, that would be fabulous. I already know about excelsior and college network, but what community college's etc...
Thanks!!!

Hello, I believe since Everest LPN program is just a one year program which doesnt require any prereqs, I honestly dont believe anything transfers. (theres nothing to transfer) If you wish to apply at one of the local community colleges you will be required to have the same nursing prereqs that everyone else has to have if you dont already have them such as Anatomy I and II, Psych, Micro, Nutrition, ect.... I know it seems like having an LPN certificate/degree you would be half way on your way to being an RN but unfortunately the community college wont accept anything. One good thing I've heard is that it's easier to get into an LPN to RN bridge program once you are an LPN and have all the required classes done.

I have the ADN pre rrq's all finished.. That's what I am asking, can I use my certificate as a way to get into a bridge program, since I already do have my pre-reqs done?!?

In your other thread about this I explained that the LPN to RN bridge programs require an LPN license. They also require acceptable transfer credits for the prerequisite courses.

Ok, good. I just want to make sure, the money I am dishing out for Everest, is going to be able to be used as a stepping stone for a RN program! I know I kinda already have a head start then most of my other fellow students because I spent 1 1/2 years at CC and got all my nursing pre-req's finished already.... Thanks

See, you should be good to go! You were wise to get your prereqs done at a community college.
