Jjc Lpn to Rn program

lillady04 · Oct 16, 2015

I Too called the nursing department and was told the traditional adn nursing students should recieve an email sometime today the Lpn to rn students with 1-2 weeks. Because their application period was August and ours September.

I too am waiting, I checked my email every 5 minutes today at work. I do know there was 40+ people that applied, I got a 69 on the predictor test and am missing microbiology, so i'm praying i get in this program, i need to get this ball rolling from LPN to RN.

Nice to know around how many ppl applied. I don't think microbiology is a requirement to get in. Good luck and keep your fingers crossed.

I was a bit suprised that 40+ lpn's applied for the program. I just knew in the back of my head that only a handful of people applied. But i'm sure everyone didn't get a 68 percent or higher for the guaranteed seat in the program. Does anyone know if there is a morning and evening option still available for the transition program? And which would you all choose if you had a choice?

I don't know if they have an evening option. But if they do, it doesn't matter days or evening for me as long as I get chosen.

I'm Not sure if they have day/evening options as it was not on our application like it was for the traditional adn students. I am fine with days as I work evenings. I am curious as to how many days a week we will have to Attend? I Know someone who tested but didn't get the 68 but was told she might still have a chance. I'm dying to see how many ppl made the guaranteed admissions bc I was told I was the first person that tested so at that time no information was available.

Wow. I was gonna wait until the march 15th deadline, but I was like let me go ahead and shoot for it, I've not even been an LPN for a year yet, and I didn't study for the ATN Predictor at all, I literally worked that day, had my A and P II class, and went to the testing center ( i did all of this on my birthday) which was the last day for submitted everything. So we shall see, i'm praying my name is pulled for this. Have any of you all taken microbiology at JJC? If so who would you recommend?

I too have been an lpn for less than a year but working Ltc and looking to get out asap! I didn't study either bc I felt like everything was still fresh in my head. I didn't take microbiology at jjc but at another college.

Hello Ladies, well I been an LPN for 3yrs now and am so ready to get out of ltc. I scored a 66 on the PN exam so not a definite score for me but I'm still hoping and believing that I have a chance, I have all my classes complete and a decent gpa. This wait is really killing me, I would just like to know already so I can know if I need to re-test for the march deadline. Good luck to everyone, I hope we all get in!

So at the end of October.....Don't they understand how torturous this wait is, I wonder what the hold up could be.?

lillady04 · Oct 19, 2015

Toni I was told it's taking so long bc they had to get the traditional adn students out the way because their application period ended a month before ours. But good luck!
