LPN/LVN Online Degrees?

[latinarabiya]

I would like to know if there are any LPN or LVN online degree programs. I'm an American living in Riyadh and would like to pursue a Nursing Degree

ASAP. Can anyone tell me what would be the best course to finishing up a Nursing Degree from abroad? Online courses seem to best choice until I go back west.

Thanks,

I moved your post to the Distance Learning Forum for more responses. Good luck to you!

All LPN to RN programs that I know of require clinicals, so the program isn't exclusively on-line.

I have no experience with Excelsior, so I don't know if you can set up your own clinicals or not (it sounds like you can) but you still have to check off, which would mean flying to their check off sites.

the op is asking about online lvn programs and the only one i know of is chamberlain ,but you still are required to visit the campus every year and do clinicals with a preceptor

i see, i missed that. totally. i even posted a response, and then realized what you meant.

i did not even realize that there was such a thing as an lpn program on-line, my brain just went directly to "lpn to rn on-line" mode.

slow on the uptake, but i eventually figure things out!
