I knew about the science courses expiring but I wasn't sure if it applied to my other gen ed classes. I failed two separate classes at my previous program. So, it was solely based on grades. My mom is a nurse and was shocked about the 5 year rule. I called around the schools in my area and they confirmed I would have to wait 5 years after failing out of an RN program. Feel free to check it out. As far as bridging from LPN to RN, I don't know if the "5 year rule" will still apply or not which is something I wanted to ask about. I appreciate your input.

Hello! I am currently in LPN school in TN. Originally, I was attending an RN-BSN program but failed out my last semester. I'll spare the details, but basically I was told by ALL of the other schools I looked into that I would have to wait 5 years to reapply to ANY RN school. I found one exception in Mississippi but I would have to be a Mississippi resident, which I am not. So, I chose to go to LPN school. I graduate there in October. My goal is to ultimately get my BSN, but I've got such a long way to go. What stresses me out is that nearly all of my college pre-requisites have expired, which means I will have to retake all of them😩. I have made peace (or currently trying lol) with this predicament. My question is has anyone attended or know someone who went to the LPN-RN mobility track program at Southwest CC in Memphis, TN? That's my best option so far. I thought about jumping directly into the Memphis BSN program, but I'm not sure as far as how many more pre-requisites I would have to take. Ideally, I wanted to transition from LPN-ADN then ADN-BSN. I would appreciate any suggestions y'all will have! Thank you :)
