Looking for LPN program to attend in January

Published

Hello I am currently looking for a 9-12 month LPN program to attend in the Cleveland Ohio area, I would like to start something in January I know that may seem unrealistic but I am pressed for time I was looking into ATS Institute but from what I viewed on here I'm a little apprehensive now...does anyone have any advice? I also ABSOLUTELY NEED something that can be accredited preferably a school that allows me to transfer and continue at Hondrous to get my RN then BSN. Also I looked into and really liked the idea of attending Cuyahoga Valley Career Center this past summer in August but I missed the opportunity due to their $500 out of pocket administrative seat fee.

Most LPN schools that starts in Jan might have already completed their selection process. I am starting an LPN program January 22nd and we had to take a few test to enter the program. IDK how others work.

Entering nursing school happens only after academic testing, physical, drug screening, official transcripts, interview, paperwork, payment and all sorts of documentation and deadlines. Seeing as January starts in a little over a week, I'd stay away from any program that would be willing to take you (unless 80k in debts from a non-accredited school is what you're looking for, in which case, just scribble a nursing license in crayon for the same results). If you're dead-set on getting started, sign up for pre-reqs at your local community college. It will get you started.

I am curious, why are you so pressed for time?

Hey Jade! I am unable to send private messages so I figured I would reply to you on here. I've done my entrance exams and my information session. I did the drug test and background check last week. I keep trying to go turn in all my application materials but the school is closed for snow, so hopefully it will finally reopen Wednesday and I can go. How far into the admissions process are you?

This...

If you were not able to make your self imposed deadline since it's January; please at least sign up at your local community college and start pre-req's as another poster suggested. You came start in the summer and have another option of getting your pre-req's out the easy for a ADN or a BSN program.
