Hi there,
I've just started my LPN program in a moderately populated town. The total cost for me was $13,500. (books, labs, uniforms....) (I didn't get any loans, saved over the years.....) Were your fees comparible? I feel like it was quite expensive for a 2 1/2 year program.
Side note, apparently we'll be taught to run IV lines.....something new added to the course i believe...
Are you doing your program thru Sprott-Shaw? If so, it's a great school. I did my medical assistant program thru them a few years ago when i was living in Victoria. If i weren't in northern alberta i'd apply. :chuckle I'm doing my program thru Northern Lakes College, so i guess $13000 isn't too bad.I am about to pay $19,000.00 (canadian) for a one year LPN program (in vancouver). This includes everything, and it's through a private college.
Best of luck to you!

I paid roughly $16,000 for my LPN program. Its 13 months, it is a private college and its a fast track program. They also have a bridge program for LPN-RN. The $17,000 included books, uniforms, skills bag(Littman Stethoscope, IV start kits, etc for lab class) student nurse malpractice insurance, NCLEX review classes and the NCLEX fee as well as background checks and of course the tuition.I couldn't be happier with my school though, I have awesome instructors who truly have a love for nursing, and each of them has their own little "baby" of nursing, so I feel that we get the maximum benefit, such as one teacher loving peds and one gero and another rehab, etc. I love school..its been a long time since I could honestly say that!

At home, in texas, it is only as Jamie said, $2,300. So I feel the same way about expense. But you gotta do what you gotta do, right???
