I went to the University of Utah - great school! I used to call my self a Low Paid Nurse when I was an LPN, because you do almost everything an RN does but you get paid $10,000/ yr less. It is really worth it to get your RN. In my program it was only a matter of an extra 2 semesters. Your RN will give you more flexibility and money :yelclap: !!! I would definately reccommend going all the way for your RN!

There are several places along the Wasatch Front to get a nursing degree - University of Utah, BYU, Provo College, Westminster, Weber State to name a few. My recommendation is to march straight toward an RN degree - don't stop at LPN or even aim only for LPN. RN pay is better, and more jobs are available. Spots at schools are not so available, though. Try Utah Career College if you want in before Fall of 2010, which, according to hearsay, is the current acceptance date of several schools in the greater Salt Lake area.
