LPN or RN Chattahoochee Tech? HELP PLEASE!

Published

Wondering if good career opportunites available if considering LPN programs?

Is Chattahoochee Tech a good school to consider for this program?

How long does it take to get LPN? Can one work part-time while attending school?

Please help!

Thanks!

How are you liking the program? It's been difficult to find feedback from those that are in the program...though I know that there are a small number of you. :)

I'm not in the Chattahoochee program, I'm at Georgia Highlands. :) Just did my prereqs at Chatt.

ohhh, gotcha. I'm trying to apply to that program as well. Chatt is causing me trouble b/c they will not let me take the required nutrition course. Grrr.

Bc Chatt doesn't offer nutrition. But you can take Chem instead, it substitutes.

Much as I didn't want to take Chemistry ;) I think that is the route that I'm going to have to take. Right now, the Chem classes at chatt are full, but I have emailed a prof that I think will let me add if I show up to the first class. My schedule is going to be SO packed. I'm thinking that if I can score really well on the TEAS then I'll just go with the Chatt ADN and failing that, I might shoot for GA Highland's in the fall since Marietta is an option then. I could *hopefully* get some pt nurse tech work at an area hospital in the interim as a foot in for the future.

That's a great idea. Are you a CNA?

Thanks for the info LetsGoMets31.I am new to the forum. I am a CNA looking for work while I finish my pre-req's from chattahoochee. Do you know of any jobs in the area? :up:

I don't necessarily *know* of any, but you can go to any hospital/hospital system's website and view job postings. There are almost always CNA positions available.
