applied for lpn candidacy...having a hard time in AP ... about to wrap it up in 2 weeks...all other classes are A's. with what i think i will ge in AP, my gpa will b around 3.4

i attend laguardia and the folks in the nursing office dot give too much info away...they just tell me...for hundreds of times i go in and try to find out...that to get into the program u need at least a 2.5. blah blah blah...

i know the cuttoff for the rn program at laguardia last semester was a 3.8...and all know about the lpn cutoff was that it was significantly lower that the rn cutoff ... but dont know by how much.

lpns and lpns to be - what was the cutoff in ur school?

Specializes in Case mgmt., rehab, (CRRN), LTC & psych.

I went to a private, for-profit LPN program at a trade school that didn't pay attention to GPA or even look at previous college coursework. I attended the same type of RN program.

Specializes in MedSurg, Clinic, ER.

the LVN program i was just accepted in to does not have pre-req classes, and only has the college's requirement on gpa (2.0, no academic suspension)... as far as i know, the bridge to RN program requires 3.0 in LVN and pre-req coursework (same as LVN for any unrelated coursework - 2.0 overall, no academic suspension)... RN-ADN program is same as bridge program.
