Concorde requirements???

Me too. Hopefully I'll find out more as the program goes on. Concorde is very selective as to what information is released about the college and it's programs. If I find out anything I'll be sure to post it up!!

Thanks!

I was told by Concorde when I inquired about credits transferring that certain colleges acknowledge Concorde's program but they would not tell me which colleges may allow for further education.

They're feeding you a bunch of bull. Concorde's credits do not transfer. Here's the deal.....

Concorde's credits won't transfer, but the actual LVN license will transfer toward any LVN-to-RN bridge program in Texas. With the LVN license issued by the state of Texas, you can take a few prerequisite classes, become accepted into an LVN-to-RN bridge program, and skip the first year of RN school. Angelina College, located in Jasper, is the only RN school in Texas mandating that LVNs must graduate from an NLN-accredited program to gain acceptance into their school.

Thanks for the input. I'm now looking at doing the Excelsior or Tarleton LVN-BSN bridge program.
