I'm trying not to put all my eggs in one basket, so, I've decided to also apply to an LPN program, even though I have just been accepted to an RN program at St. Paul's School of Nursing - Queens. Since I keep getting negative reviews of the school, I want to apply to an accredited LPN program in NYC, but I don't have the time or patience for CUNY at this point in my life. I've been looking at a few LPN programs, for example Mildred Elley, but none of these programs seem to be accredited by the NLN/ACEN. Do LPN programs have to accredited by the NLN/ACEN, and if so, what schools are accredited in NYC? Most of the ones that are accredited are in upstate and are way to far for me. Please help! Thanks!
