Anyone attending RACC in Reading PA: LPN program?

[ciiiii]

Hi,

I'm doing some research about nursing schools in PA because I'm from NY and I have to move to PA due to family issues.

I finished 3 semesters of RN school (2-year degree) in NY at a community college. But unfortunately I fail on the very last semester due to family issues and also I have to move. This is my first time failure so I think with the knowledge I have and clinical experiences as a student nurse, the LPN program is doable for me at this time, less stress and quick. Later on when I'm more stable, I can pursue my RN degree.

I heard people say RACC RN program is very tough and the fail rate is pretty high. How about the LPN? I really need advice from someone who attending RACC in Reading PA. I don't think Reading hospital provides LPN program. Please help! Thank you in advance.

Good day:

While I don't go to RACC (they were one of my choices for RN school), I do know they have a good program. The HACC Lancaster campus has a LPN and RN program as well (that's where I go for their RN program).

Tough, hard, etc. are relative terms. So it is hard to answer whether a given program is too tough or not.

HACC's program, btw, is ranked 8th nationwide for both LPN and RN programs.
