Got into LPN program...still apply to Associate RN?

Yea! I got into the spring 2009 LPN program. I passed my NET on Tuesday and that was the final piece. However, I'm still going to apply to the spring 2009 Associates progarm as well. I can't decide if I want to be accepted to that one though. :) My ultimate goal is to get my bachelors RN - but part of me wants to start off slower with the LPN and then do a bridge to RN. Suddenly I'm nervous about 2 years of nursing school and more responsibility. (Not that LPN's don't have a lot of responsiblity) Any opinions or anyone in the same situation? The deadline to apply for the associates is 8/1 - so I need to decide soon.

I would apply. There is now harm in that. Then if you get you can decide. But you don't want 8/2 to roll around and start saying I should have applied. Maybe if you get in you can talk to someone at the school and they could help you weigh your options.

Congratulations on your acceptance!

I would still apply for the RN. Like msdeannah said, you do not want to regret not applying! You can make a decision later on what you want to do. Personally I'd just go straight for the RN, it's one step closer to the BSN...

But then if you don't get in to the RN program (not trying to think negatively here, just saying! :D), you'd still have the LPN program to fall back on..

My :twocents:, good luck!

At my school, the first year of LPN and RN programs are bacially the same and after that you go into the rest of your particular program. Having said that, there is an option of the LPN students to transfer in to the RN program after the first year and go right for the RN, does your school offer this option to the LPN students? If you are not sure, you may want to call the school and ask anyone in the Nursing division advisement or Nursing division admissions, just tell them it is a general question that anyone could answer.
