Find one fast(anyone)! You may have to do LPN-BSN. Georgia is getting rid of most of their LPN-RN programs(most are ending at the end of 2009). go to the Georgia state web-site. They will give you a list of nursing schools. I hope everything goes while.

Thanks Moga.

I will check out Abraham Baldwin College in Tifton's Bridge Program.

Do you go there and is there a waitlist?

I did go there, but I didn't go through the bridge program because I wasn't an LPN before. There isn't a waitlist that I know of, per se, because you are admitted based on GPA. How ever many they are accepting while be chosen by the highest GPAs. There is a waitlist of people to get into the program that rolls over from semester to semester, but they are not chosen over new applicants with higher GPAs. Hope that makes sense. I loved the program. It's demanding, but you learn a lot. If you contact the school, they should be able to give you a lot of information. Either way, I hope you find the right school for you! If you need anything, just ask!

I start my last semester of NS this fall at ABAC in Tifton, GA. I could not have asked for a better experience than what I've had so far. I'm in the traditional program, but I know students in the bridge program and they speak very highly of it. If I had it all to go over again, I would have got my LPN and then bridged through like many of them are. You only attend class one day per week and will have your RN in one year.

If you have any questions about the program, this is the number directly to the Nursing Division at ABAC: 229-391-5020
