Hi! I have thanks for your advice. I was just sharing my reason for @Mimi321. I did the work. I went to therapy & a psychiatrist to help me through this.

?? I was just replying to @Mimi321 question if you’re well aware that’s fine I was just responding to her questions on my forum.

Thanks for responding to this answer and yes IDK about ny rules, but my friend went to a school in ny and their rules are different. Most likely if the school you didn’t go to was a public or a nonprofit private school that courses are transferable 90% you have to retake a lot of courses over even if you were almost done. I had 1 class left and I had to take courses over when put me back 1.5 years before graduating since I was suppose to graduate in last August. I hope this answers your question. And you, yourself need to do your own further research to see what your next steps are since I am not from your state and they have different rules.

If you live in CA there’s an option that you can choose to challenge to sit for your NCLEX LVN license. You have to be able to reach out to your school and have the dean sign off all your clinical hours and courses that equivalent with the courses they are looking for to be able to see if you’re eligible to apply for.

You would have to apply to a bridge program LVN to RN.

Hi, First off, I am so sorry for what you’re going through. I felt the same exact way when I got dismissed from school for not passing with for myself the 76% mark. And since I have failed 2 courses before there was no exception. I failed due to a lot of anxiety problems psychologically with test taking & my uncle recently passed away. Before that my dad passed out and was internally bleeding around finals. I went appealed in front of the committee, the dean, & fought to speak with the president of the school. In the end it still ended with a, “Sorry there’s nothing we can do for you.” This was about a year ago and I probably post this forum a couple days after not passing. I was a hot mess..My school is a for profit school, so nothing was going to transferred & my next option was appealing to sit for LVN test. Due to covid restrictions, there was a delay in my approval to sit for the LVN exam in California. I decided to look into the community route. I reached out the the dean of all the community here in Maricopa county community college to see if there was any possible way I can apply for the nursing associates program here. She agreed to meet with me and here out my story. She told me to just take the HESI test, score high enough to be competitive and although it is a 2 year wait to get into the ADN program I was an exception. Lone behold, I scored 94% on my HESI, applied for all of the community colleges & within 2 months I was accepted to the nursing program to enroll in block 2. Although, my story I share with you I was one of the exceptions, I challenge you to do your research and see what are you options if you could take a community route. Do a lot of research and ask questions. In AZ, you can get your LVN and then test into an accelerated ADN program or get into block 3 for the traditional ADN and bypass block 1&2 depending on your test scores. If you still want to be a nurse keep researching and see what your options are. It ***en sucks to retake nursing courses again believe me, but if you’re passionate about it, you keep trying. And if you decide to close this chapter and want to do something else, it’s okay too. Sending lots of love your way. ??

Hi, just curious if anyone is apply for block 2 for the ADN Maricopa community colleges for 2022. I was wondering has anyone gotten accepted yet? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for all your responses, there are a lot of things each individual can share, but I am aware of my faults and the steps I have learned to move past this situation. Whether or not anyone feels that I shouldn't be allowed to challenge and sit is your opinion. I was shy away of 2 classes of graduating with my BSN. I had a GPA over a 3.4, jumping back from failing two previous courses, which shown I have the capability to understand the information and use the tools I have learned to pass my courses. The last class I failed was due to some issues with my family issues which resulted into me failing. I don't really need to go into further discussion but at the end of the day, no one really knows what an individual went through to the result of failing and being dismissed from school. With that being said to move forward, I am asking for opinions of individuals that have done this option #3 and have succeeded or not. I appreciate others concern, but I wrote this post to see if I can take the LVN test, then do the RN program, and then take the bridge program for my BSN to have another opportunity to afford and become a nurse.

Hi! Thank you for sharing this. I just submitted my application to see if I can sit for the LVN certification in hopes to taking this exam, passing, then applying to a job then being able to afford the RN program and then bridge to a BSN program. I went to a university for my BSN and I was shy away from two courses due to some family issues. I hope reaching out to you from you post may have hope that my evaluator will approve my courses to take the LVN test. The only issue I have right now is my school is not school sealing my hours which I have done over 528 hours. It says clinical hours for " vocational nursing and registered nursing, but if I went to school for my BSN, won't I have to submit my clinical hours too? If you know, please definitely respond back, this would be super helpful! Thank you in advance!

Hi, I have looked into it, but it doesn't have the option 3 that California has where I can just sit for the LPN, I have spoken to some of my colleagues from work that shared with me how I can sit for the LPN certification if I have all the requirements or even take a 2month course to get the LPN certification.

Hi, Long story short, I failed out of my BSN at Chamberlain University 2 months ago. I was suppose to graduate next week. I have Appealed to the committee and president, but they declined. I am trying to use the credits I have which are all of them since I just needed community health and capstone. I was wondering what do I need document wise to challenge the nursing board to be approve to sit for my LVN license? I am curious for Arizona and CA. California has a method #3. I was wondering if anyone has further information or has gone through this? Thank you, Nancy

I failed Community health due to some issues I had. It has been the ******** feeling I have been going through for 2 months. I tried to appeal to the committee and also to the president, but no luck. I was suppose to graduate next week and it just ***** sucks... I am out of the program due to this is my 3rd time failing out. Nursing school has a rule where you cannot fail 2courses then you fail out. Due to testing anxiety I failed out but got readmitted. This time around I was maxed out of my financial aide student loan and I was just so caught up in working to make bills and tuition, I was burnt out. I had two courses left to receive my BSN, I have all my clinical hours completed besides community and capstone. I am trying to challenge the nursing board to get my CNA and LPN. Not sure if I need my CNA license before my LPN to take, but any advice would be great. Thank you in advance. I am located in Arizona and planning to move back to California.

Hi everyone! I am planning to go to Chamberlin this Fall in September for my BSN. I am only going to Chamberlin for 2 years since I did my prereq. beforehand. I was wondering if anyone has pros and cons about Chamberlin College in Phoenix, Az. I know there has been a lot of changes with Chamberlin and their transition to ATI testing. I was wondering what would be anyone's advice and so forth! Anything will be greatly appreciated! Also, if anyone is planning to go this fall to Chamberlin in Phoenix Az lets connect! Best, Nancy
