Hello! I was hoping to get ANY info on affordable and accredited LPN programs besides community colleges. I really want to start working in the field (I have a bachelors already but cannot do the accelerated program due to my GPA and my degree being completely different from the medical field). I would greatly appreciate the help! I was also thinking of becoming a CNA just so I can work and go to school. Any help with that as well is greatly appreciated.
Best

Hi I’m kinda in the same boat. I actually started out as a nursing major at my 4 yr but then things changed and I had a baby. I needed up getting a degree in public health but my gpa is around a 2.9. I pretty much always met the minimum requirements for my school but I’m finding it’s hard to even get into other programs with that. I’m going to try and go the RN (2 yr route) through community college. You should look into it. All the lpn schools I’ve looked into is way to much and you’ll just have to go back to get an rn anyways.
Lpn is 1 year usually but your dropping more than 2 yr RN program. If your able to definitely try that
