LPN to BSN programs

Published

Hi,

Does anyone know if there are any online LPN to BSN programs? I did an online search and am having a difficult time finding any.

Thanks.

The only functional one I'm aware of in my area is found at the University of Phoenix:LPN/LVN to BSN Online - Bachelor of Science in Nursing - University of Phoenix

I didn't care for it personally, as it has two years of scheduled courses before one were to *start* taking core courses that allowed one to take the NCLEX-RN. Smelled awfully predatory to me.

Have you looked in your area-there may be some local universities that may have online transition courses.

Indiana State University offers a fully accredited LPN-to-BSN transition program. It is online and accepted for licensure in all states with the exception of California.

Sorry to tell you, but most LPN - BSN "programs" are simply just BSN programs. Apply to a BSN program and maybe you classes will transfer, but honestly most of your courses will not be accepted. You don't have too much of a leg-up in terms of course completion when it comes to completing a BSN program at your level.

There are a couple here in the Houston area and you do get credit for your LVN classes but the schools aren't online
