Nursing Students LPN/LVN Students

Even though I know my program was highly over priced reading these threads makes me feel like I paid more than most people do. My program was $28,000 and I graduated in 2010. How much was your program and what year did you graduate?

WOW...That sounds like alot of money for an LPN program. Im working on my ADN at my local community college and its about $10,000 total including pre-reqs, books, uniforms, and supplies. Then i will transfer to the local University for the RN-BSN transition program, thats another $6,000 for a grand total of about $16,000 out the door for my BSN. I guess it all depends where you're located and if your attending a community college v corporate training program for Nursing. Some programs around here can get up that $$ high and they are not even accredited. Good luck with whatever path you take.

$37,000 in southern California. Expensive. But after grants and taking advantage of their tuition match program, I will have paid around $24,000. I'll be graduating with $20,000 in debt. Oh well. I'm sure the RN bridge program won't be too expensive!

Right now the tuition at the votech lpn program in my town is about 13,000$ (yes, thirteen thousand) and it's way overpriced. At the local community college it's roughly 16000$, but some of the classes transfer to the RN program so it's a better deal in the end.

One of the community colleges around here costs $13,000 for a lpn. It is 11 months with no waiting list. But another community college is $12,000 for an adn but the waiting list is long.

I earned my LPN at my local adult/community vocational school in 2009. My tuition was in the ballpark of $5K, books, uniforms, and NCLEX fees included. The costs of program were paid by the Workforce Investment Act (WIA) grant.
