Fall 2012 lpn classes

Hi all!!!!

To answer your questions....

1. I start 8/23/2012 at Milwaukee Area Technical College

2. My program is 2 semesters...Aug 2012- May 2013 (approx. 9 months)

3. I decided to become an LPN as I have been a CNA so long, I figured it was time to start moving up while the timing is right!

4. about 4500...cant beat technical college prices!!! :)

I wish there we're colleges in OK that had programs like this!

1: Start August 27 @ Ukiah Adult School

2: 18 months, but really only 14-15 months when you count in the holiday and summer breaks (August 2012-January 2014)

3: I've been interested in pursuing a career in nursing for many years but was too scared to try.. Silly! I'm planning to bridge to RN later.

4: Tuition & books = $6000. Uniforms, physical/immunizations, graduation fees are not included.

1: what date you start/ school name

2: how long is your program

3: why are you becoming an lpn..

4: how much is your program

September 11 @ NYCDOE LPN program Goldwater Hospital

11 months

I wanted a career where I could wake up every morning knowing I would make a difference in this selfish world by being selfless and helping the sick and injured.

2500.00 but if you get one of the scholarships they offer every year then it's free

I wish good luck to every one, as time goes on i think we should keep this updated on how school is going, as well as learing techniques that help us with difficult subjects.

I completely agree!!! That's a wonderful idea!

Just got confirmation from our instructor the brand new iPad 2's are ours to keep and come loaded with apps purchased by the school. Yipeeeeeee!

I went to orientation today and found out we do get to keep ours!!!

My program starts August 2oth

My school is Colorado Mesa University in Grand Junction Colorado

The program is 9 months long and costs roughly $7,000

I am becoming an LPN as a first step in the university's career ladder program where you can gain preferred entry into the AAS and BSN programs. Ultimately I would like to be either a Nurse Midwife or a Nurse Practitioner. I have already been grilled as to why I'd want to be an LPN and not just go for RN. Honestly, I'm 37 years old and don't have the luxury of years to spend on prerequisites for the BSN program like all the 20 year-olds do. I need to enter the workforce as soon as possible. Plus, I believe it will benefit me to experience nursing at all levels. I was a CNA previously and I believe that having been a CNA will make me appreciate the ones who I will work with more.

Whoa! Coolness! I'm quite sure we don't get any swag like that in my program!

Hello!!

I'm doing an RPN program here in Ontario, Canada

1. Mohawk College, Hamilton ON September 5th

2. 2 years (4 semesters), will be finished April 2014

3. I've always wanted to be a nurse. If I have to work every day, I want to spend it helping others and making a difference. I also am very interested in medical things.

4. In total, about $8,500 CAD

:)

Good Morning (or Afternoon, depending on your time zone, I'm on the EC) everyone!

1. I start the Practical Nursing program at Everest Institute in Southfield, MI on September 4, 2012. Orientation is August 7.

2. The program length is 11 months. The graduation date given is August 16, 2013.

3. I am becoming an LPN in order to facilitate a career in nursing. I am currently on a waiting list for an RN program, but who has time to wait? Once I am licensed, I am eligible for advanced placement in the very program I am waitlisted for. I plan to get my ASN, BSN, and then seek a higher degree to become a GNP or CRNA. I'll cross that bridge when I get to it, but I do plan to be an advanced practice nurse.

i too start the lpn program soon.i start august first and graduation is june 24,2013 i am so excited to further my career,i also would like to be an RN

I start 10/25/12 @ Ptec st.Petersburg,Fl.I go to orientation 8/15. I can't wait to get started and become an lpn. The cost $7000.

I start Lincoln Technical Institute in Center City August 8th

My program is a 1 yr program

I am becoming an LPN because I applied to Northeastern Hospital School of Nursing twice and was denied, the first time in 2010 because my GPA was too low and this year because I failed the Teas V test by 1 point I think I couldn't concentrate because I was 3 weeks away from my due date. I got turned down by Community College of Philadelphia of this year because I scored a high score on the NET but, because others had higher scores they got chosen first and I didn't want to put my career on hold any longer so I have decided to become an LPN and then do my RN online at Excelsior online which is better for me anyway so that I am able to work. Then I would later like to either become a Nurse Practitioner or a Nurse Anesthetist.

My program is $27,000 its a lot of money BUT, I have to do what I have to do to start my career I am 24 years of age with 2 children I want to provide a good life for them, depending on food stamps for my family to eat and or living pay check to pay check is not an option for me nor will it be in my future.
