Nursing Students LPN-RN
Published Oct 16, 2006
I have an appointment with College Network Rep. this week. I was wondering if anybody has graduated from the program. I am an LPN trying to get my RN. If anybody has any information I would greatly appreciate it.

And from what I understand CA doesn't take Excelsior, although they are an actual degree granting school. But I think they DO take ISU. However..you do not need TCN to use ISU or Excelsior. You have to be accepted into ISU's nursing program just like any other nursing program..and then you test out wherever they tell you too and get your degree through them with the materials they recommend. Usually cheaper to go this route than to spend extra on TCN. I would cancel TCN RIGHT NOW if it hasn't been three days yet...investigate the matter...THEN decide.

I few of us here are working on it but I'm not sure if allnurses has any grads from there. The distance BSN is still pretty new.
Hey Yall...I just looked on Amazon and they ALSO have College Network Modules. Large selection. More expensive than eBay but still really cheap compared to TCN. Make sure you put "the College Network" in quotes when you search it. Maybe this link will work.

Did you find an online program yet? If so, have you started? Are you going fromLPN to RN or just to RN?

I am going back to local community college, I start in Aug. I'm doing LPN to RN. On line classes did not work for me.
Sorry to hear that. If you have instant messaging, add me to your buddy list. It is easier to talk ok. AIM is Cisl4him
OK I did it.
What is your screen name and I will add you to mine. Do you see mine in your buddy window? Make sure that you know the l in Cisl4him is L not number 1. I always type the small l. Look forward to chatting.

I am currently looking at two modules from CN, I signed up before reading this info- (big bummer)... now I am totally committed financially. It costs $210 each time you go take one of your module tests. BTW, a module is a book which has all the info in it for you to go through, then you go test out at a testing center. I am having a hard time retaining the entire book, which is required to take the exam. It is very difficult.
Wishing you luck, choose wisely.
