Is there anyone that has recently or is currently taking a legit LPN to RN program? Preferably online? I've been searching for one and a lot of them are confusing on if they are actually accredited in Florida. I'd hate to waste money and time on classes/tests and then not be able to take the NCLEX-RN. I went to a vocational a school years ago for my LPN so I don't have any credits to transfer over. My goal is to obtain my RN license and then hopefully do an RN to BSN program. Thank you!

WGU offers an affordable, accredited BSN program while not a bridge has many LPNs enrolled. All of the didactic (classroom) content is online- with clinicals in various locations.

Have you attended this school? I am curious because their website shows very little and I wanted to know if people have done the ADN program and if they were able to transfer any LVN/LPN courses. I would also like to know how clinicals work as I would be coming from out of state.
ICHS has a lot of feedback from students about impossible exit exams and their struggles graduating. If you choose to go there definitely be aware of what you're getting into.

Where did you read this feedback from?
these forums also Google, yelp, also met some people from there who haven't been too happy with their experience
