No prerequisite lvn to RN

Updated:   Published

Hi guys, anyone know about any Lvn to RN program in Dallas area, Texas, that don't require prerequisites. Or accelerated Bachelors in any field to BSN with no prerequisites requirements.

Thanks.

I can unequically say that any applicant to any type of nursing program will have certain knowledge requirements (pre-reqs). Any collegial (of advanced learning) institution has a basic minimum of knowledge to be accepted into their programs.

Thus, there are NO college degrees that have no pre-requisites (basic knowledge).

The schools of poor repute in the Dallas area (ITT Tech in Richardson, Dallas Nursing Institute, Fortis College, West Coast University, Concorde) will grant you admission without having completed any prerequisite coursework.

I don't think there are any schools like that....

Honestly, nursing programs will require prerequisites as you will need basic knowledge on Anatomy and Physiology for example to pass a Medical Surgical or Pharmacology courses. I highly doubt a nursing program for ADN or BSN that is accredited will not have any prerequisite at all exist.

I can fully understand not wanting to spend the $$ or time taking prerequisite course when you are anxious to get your nursing education done with, but I don't know any reputable ADN or BSN program that isn't going to make you take some.

I'm sure there are some private-shady ones, but those may not get you the job you are going to school to get. Plus some have abysmal NCLEX pass rates, and their cost is 2-3 times that of other schools.

There are no schools like that. Regardless you are going to have to take the classes either as pre-reqs or co-reqs.

I mean *technically* my school (in PA) only has 1 prerequisite, the rest are CO requisites and can technically be completed during the program. But then that would mean taking around 15-20 credits a semester, and would make you likely to NOT get selected since most applicants have at least half if not all of the Co requisites completed at the time they apply (this includes LPN to RN)
