I got a letter from my school with a breakdown of my fees and tuition for September. I called the registrar because something was askew with the $$$ figures.

Turns out the tuition figure listed on my school's website is wrong. I will actually have to pay $1,000 LESS than is listed!! :monkeydance:

So my total fees, tuition and books for my 12 month LPN program is $6,100!!

I'm so excited! When I first considered this course, I thought it was going to run me at least $9,000. Then the website listed it at $7,100, but it's actually $6,100!!

:D

In 1974 when I went to LPN school my total tuition was $250 which included books and 3 uniforms. We got free lunch everyday. Those who agreed to work for the hosp for a year after graduation got their tuition free and $1.25 an hour for clinicals as well. My parents paid my tuition and at the time I thought that was a really big deal. Wow how things have changed.
