LVN to ADN? new here and need some help :)

[Bostonguitar76]

Hello there everyone!

I'm brand new here and come in somewhat of a dilemma. Maybe someone here can point me in a right direction?

I'm currently in an LVN program at Concorde in Garden Grove, CA with about 9 months to go till I graduate. Once I do graduate, I'd like to get my ADN and with all I've heard about bridge programs, thought this would be relatively simple but the more I look online the more confused and frustrated I get.

-I was recommended to look up west coast but found its LVN to BSN and also $120,000!

-Was told to look up Everest but all they have local that I can find is a VN program

- University of Phoenix only seems to have a VN to BSN and ADN to BSN.

Am I missing something here?

I hear a lot of nurses in the office I work at talk about getting an ADN from a VN with a year more of schooling.

Can anyone point me in the right direction on what I'd need to do or places I should look into?

I hope it's something silly I'm missing...

Thanks in advance!

You can try looking into your local community college. They usually offer a bridge program from LVN-RN for about a year. But you can only apply if you have finished your prereqs. And sometimes it's pretty hard to get in cus of the waiting list.
