Hello eveyone! This is my first time here at allnurses.com and i love it a lot of things to read, learn ect.
I have a Q. i am a CNA now at a Behavior Hospital i love my job!!! :)
but i want to become something higher i thought going into Rn 2yr program but i have not finished my prerequisites plus the waiting lists are just horrible, so it will take me 4 yrs so i thought ok well ill just fo for BSM i am very undicieded now. i really want to go to a private school for my LPN -LVN what are the prerequisites for the lpn program can anybody tell me..plzzzzz thx
yeah I dont know if they have been approved or not yet for the RN or if they are approved and will start in 2010. I wish they had fafsa so I don't have to take out so much loan. Well I guess I will be seeing you in the program then. I am scared for clinicals, I hope I dont suck.
Hello, My name is Tangy. I go to the local clooege here in reno, they say that they dont offer the LPN program which I think is STUPID? Theres not alot alot of nursing programs except RN or Radiology, those are the two that Im not interested in. So I guess If some one knows what are the prerequisites for Being an LPN, or at least a website. Not even the Nev State Board of nursing dosent have that Information.... Please help? Thanks

We don't know. You need to meet with an academic advisor at your school of choice.
Generally, the prereqs for an LVN/LPN program are fewer than the RN degree - Intro A&P and medical terminology was the only requirement before applying for the program at my school.
Its Tangy again, I dont know why my community college doesnt offer other nursing courses. I am a CNA, and I have 19 yrs experience with the elderly in home care,convelesent care, asst living exct.. I then went back to my local college to do phlebotomy that was great however in nevada they wont hire you unless you have experience trust me I know and so did the other students. I feel like I have to drop out of my local college just to attend one on line. Im frustrated and dont know what to do? I would talk to acedemic advisors but there lost too, they were the ones who told me that they did offer it, It hasnt gotten me anyware. Thanks
OK so what does that mean by PT/LPN, I know what they stand for but does that mean that you are taking PT classes to become LPN? I wasnt sure about your message, or what it stood for. Are you located anyware around me, I truely think that my local college is STUPID for not offering more Nursing classes, all they offer is RN/Radiology. Why should I limit my self to just those too things.
I quess I have to take some on-line courses and classes up at the college but I dont have any Idea on WHAT? The Acedemic Advisors dont know either, they have sent me to many wrong areas. Why are they their if they cant help people.
PT means part time. A lot of school in FL that offer LPN classes do not have pre-req's. There is Galen, Erwin, Brewster, etc... It's only when you go bridge to RN school is when the pre-req's come into play.
Depends on school and state. Here in Colorado if you go to the state board of nursing website it list the LPN/RN pre-reqs usually all the Community Colleges will be the same in your state and trade schools will vary
