Need info about colleges in my area, wanting to go back for RN!

by angl987

I am currently an LPN wanting to go back to school for my associate's degree for RN. I live in the southeastern part of ohio and the schools close to me are Rio Grande College and Hocking College. Can anyone who has attended either college give me any insight about the nursing program to help me decide on a college to attend? I would greatly appreciate it.

rio grande was a wonderful program. If you live close I would suggest doing the on campus program. It only takes 3 semesters instead of 6. I did the LPN to RN online program.Graduated in 2007.Teachers were great.Clinicals were challenging. I live in Cincinnati/Dayton so I had to drive 6 hours round trip to get to clinicals. The online portion is 6 semesters,1 clinical per week. Check their website www.rio.edu for indepth details. They also have a BSN program but I just decided against it since it was not online and 25,000/year
