LPN Needs Help regarding RN classes. PLEASE

Why wasn't my Associates of Science degree credited for my classes for my RN classes? I'm so Confused:no:

Could be that different classes are required for your RN? It would really depend on your school. Your best bet would be to speak with an advisor at your school

I don't really understand the question...

I need more specifics in order to answer your question.

If your previous associates degree was earned at a trade school that lacked regional accreditation, that could be a possible reason for your classes not transferring to an accredited RN program.

Thanks for your replies. Well, I actually did recieve my degree from a private college, it came with my medical assisting program. Plus, I did talk to the school couselors, he looked like he didn't care and was in a rush, he said that they can only take my speech classe, and of course credit the classes from my nursing school. I was told from the private college that it would be credited regionally for community colleges and universities. Now because of that, I actual can't decide if I want to do the 30 unit program or go for ADN.

All RN degree programs have certain classes you have to take. Some allow you to take them with the RN classes, others require them to be taken before you apply. Typically these classes included Anatomy and Physiology with the lab (some do A&P 1 and A&P 2, others anatomy with lab the physicology with lab), Microbiology, ethics, developmental psychology, some require nutition, etc. Have you taken the courses required by the program you are looking to apply to? Also, not all courses transfer between colleges. Especially from private colleges. Often you can petition to have similar courses applied toward the degree plan, but it sometimes doesn't work, especially if the course has a different focus. The physiology course I took at A&M didn't apply because it focused on animals (pre-vet course); my nursing program wanted me to take the human physiology course, so I did.
