HI everyone,
I am new here and I actually have been coming to the forum for a while now and told myself if I wanted to get the answers to my question I need to join the group you know.I have been working on become a RN since 2004 stop and had a baby boy in between and now I am ready to finish. now I have decided to go the LVN track rather then the Rn since it take a while to get. I want to get into a program and start working for my family. I work now but it is not as awarding because its not where my heart is. Anyway I have looked at Concorde and didn't like how the company pressures you to joining their school like if you don't do it right then you can not do it at all you know. I have also recently looked into the Dallas Nurse Institute and I was wondering are these the only two place that offer lvn in the Dallas/ Fort worth area that is not a community college?

Default Re: Newbie
There is an entry at the top of the Texas Nursing forum that has links to the Texas Board of Nurse Examiners website. That is where you can gain the most reliable info on the different programs in Texas.

Out of curiosity, what made you decide on a private program instead of community college? There are some excellent programs in the metroplex that are MUCH less expensive than the private schools.

And by the way - welcome to the forum!
