Heyy everyone!!

I have FINALLY decided I want to attend COC and apply to get into their LVN to RN program! Does anyone know what the pre-reqs are to be eligible for the program??! & if there are those who have been in the program how long did it take u approx. to finish the LVN-RN program ?...Thank you for your time, God bless!

COC is a tough school that is held by higher standards than an LACC. I'm not knocking LACC schools as I have attended those as well. I'm just stating the facts. I would suggest to attend a nursing info seminar at COC. They provide lots of good information & they stayed with me after to encourage me to attend their RN program. They didn't make me feel like I needed them yet why they needed me. Yes I am a hospital experienced LVN (over 20 yrs in the medical field & a little over 2 yrs as an LVN). I drive approximately 25 miles one way to school but I like the staff at COC so I am encouraged to stay. Their nursing dept is very helpful and they want qualified LVN's in their program. Good luck to you!!!

Thanks for the info hun! What do you mean by qualified LVNs? As in with good grades??

LVN's who can pass the TEAS test, from my understanding. Many people have a hard time passing. Many LVN to RN programs have closed for various reasons but I hear one is cause LVN's have a hard time passing the TEAS test but I don't plan on being 1 of them.
