The College Network is NOT an LPN-to-RN program. They are not a degree-granting institution. They are merely a publishing company that sells educational materials for distance learning programs.

Excelsior College offers an LPN-to-RN distance program. In addition, Indiana State University offers an online LPN-to-BSN program. Both of these schools are nationally accredited by the NLN (National League for Nursing). Good luck to you!

Classes are completely online and I believe that Excelsior either sets up clinicals where you live or you do it yourself. I've heard of some nurses just scheduling a day or two at the facility they work at and doing the check offs they need.

Your best bet would be to call the schools that you're interested in and ak them and also call your BON to see if they allow people who graduate from that school sit for licensing.
