Anyone go straight from LPN graduation to RN bridge?

Published

I have finished all my RN pre-requisites. Because of time and daycare issues, I'm starting an LPN program this month. I want to go straight into the RN bridge when I graduate. I feel like my chances of working as a nurse will be a lot better with my RN, but if I'm lucky enough to get an LPN job when I graduate, I'll do that while I go through the RN bridge.

Anyone else use LPN purely as a stepping stone to RN? I'd go straight for RN if they had part time or evening programs here, but they don't.

I'm in Winter Garden! I'm going to Lake Tech and then bridging over to Valencia

I know that this post is old but I have been going back and forth about this. I would LOVE to go straight into a BSN program but looking at my finances I need to make sure I can still support my son and help my husband.
