LPN programs are usually all-inclusive, for example, you take pharmacology, anatomy and physiology, math, and general nursing all in one class. You usually have lectures and labs and clinicals. A good way to get your LPN in NY is through the BOCES programs. Most areas have one. They take 10-12 months and include becoming a CNA in the first two months.
Another option would be to enroll in the college as a math/science major and take all your A&P courses, Bio, and Math, then move into the nursing program when they accept you. The community colleges are good for that route. If you hang all your hopes on one college, one program you may not get in and become disappointed which it seems that's where you are now.
Best of luck
