LPN schools In Chicagoland area

nursewithacandle · May 1, 2014

Unfortunately the state of Illinois has done away with many of the LPN programs due to lack of demand. So they say. Most of the schools that offered the program were community colleges, in which tuition cost was low or in the less than 20k ball park. Based on my research most existing LPN programs in Illinois are ran by private sectors. And the cost of tuition is more than 20k. However I have heard of CAAN academy, which is owned by a woman, is a good school. They offer financial aid, as well as accept WIA funding. If your willing to travel there is a LPN school in Lombard, Illinois. I'm sure if you Google it, you will find more information about that school. You can also search engine Illinois Nursing Programs. There is information available for current LPN programs as well as accreditation status. Best wishes, and God Bless.

- PCCTI

- ATS

- Northwestern Institute

- Ambria

Those schools have good passing rates but I think only PCCTI is around 20k, all other schools on this list are more expensive.

There is a new LPN school in Dolton, IL. 18k - not sure about the name, you can google it.

CMK - 15k - Clarendon Hills & Glendale Hts

Btw, good passing rate is considered 75% and above. That is what the school needs to be "in good standing" and maintain state accreditation.
