and one more thing.. i tried to transfer to 4yr college of nursing. but most of them they didn't allow me..because i already fail nursing program..

so what should i do...

i really can't go back to another 2year college to get in to nursing program.

It is going to be very difficult for you to get into another program at this time, and getting the LPN is not going to keep you in status for the F-1 visa that you are currently on.

The LPN license does not qualify you for any visa to remain in the US and work here. And if not currently enrolled in a nursing program, then the visa that you are on is going to become null and void. You only have 60 days after you have completed your classes to remain in the US with the visa that you have.

And the visa that you are under was sponsored by the school that you were attending as well.

With the increased number of students applying for nursing school and only limited spots, it is going to be quite difficult for you to remain in a program at this time. And it is going to be quite difficult to get into a program that starts soon for you to keep your status.
