North Palm College of Nursing - LPN to RN Online

Published

I'm looking for opinions of anyone who has attended, currently attends, or has been accepted to the online LPN to RN program at North Palm College of Nursing. 

What are the online lectures like? Are there live or recorded video lectures? It's my understanding clinical are local to the college. How often do you attend clinicals? Can you please share any pros and cons about the program?

Hey,

I'm applying for the same, and this is what I want and need. It does seem to good to be true, trying to bridge from LPN to RN in a short period of time. I too have spoken to an admissions person from school and processed all the required documentation. I just have to pay my tuition and put it in Gods hand and get to work. Are you going to begin 

Hello,

Hows the program going? Is it everything you expected? How are the lectures?

I enrolled into Arizona College it's expensive as heck. I'm in CT, my job would not grant me tuition reimbursement from North Palm because of the accreditation.

Being in CT gives you more online school option. I am from California, many online school don't accept students from California. 
 

Have you looked into Tampa medical college, they do have their own past issues though.

Yeah, a lot of these private nursing schools have issues at some point. I was at Concorde Career College in Memphis and it was horrible. If only I could find a program that would accept my credits from these private schools.

I know of a couple of people who are currently enrolled at North Palm and they say it's going well for them. The school is 90% online and you will go to Florida in the 4th term I believe for your clinicals. The school is very accommodating for those who work or have kids, as it's self paced and you move along as much or less as you can. You are tested after 1-5 weeks with your midterm and again 6-10 weeks for your final exam. All testing is monitored by proctored free. Through the course you have homework, like papers, case studies and lectures and quizzes. Sometimes PowerPoint presentations. It's a really great program, just be mindful it's a new school. The first cohort just graduated this past January 2025.

Great, thanks for the info. I am assuming your friends know that NCLEX is in Florida and transfer credits to state you live in or wish to practice in. Are you planning to go to North Palm ?
