HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok so...I graduated May 2009 with a BS in Nutritional Sciences....my degree included A&P 1 and 2, Micro, Chem, and all the other prereq most nursing schools require...in Sept 2009 I enrolled in UDC's LPN Program (for 100% FREE) and I will be finished next month. However I have a few situations going on:

1. I'm broke and I NEED A JOB after I graduate, but I have no experience other than my clinical rotations required for the program.

2. I want to attend school for my RN no later than 6 months of recieving my LPN license.

4. The LPN program I attend isn't accrediated like many RN schools I researched require.

5. I'm not sure if I should enroll in Excelsiors LPN-RN Program or should I just to find another traditional program and "try" to get accepted.

I've heard more great stories about Excelsior than bad, but I'm a little scared about different states not accepting my license......I'm single with NO CHILDREN and I live with my mom for now, and she's willing to help me as long as I'm in school...but I'm willing to move out of state if I have to...so I'm debating if I should try to enroll into Excelsior right after finishing my LPN next month so I can get it out of the way...I'm a licensed Bartender and I don't mind bartending while attending RN school, but I prefer to work as an LPN.

WHAT SHOULD I DO????????????????

How about going to an accelerated bsn program. You allready have an bachelors, and then you will graduate with a bsn. The programs usually take 1 year to complete.

I would love to but....I'm broke...and I exhausted all of my financial aid by my last semester of college, and I need to work now, that's why I chose the lpn route for now :uhoh21:
