Thanks Lisa.. The information you provided was right on the money... Now I just need to figure out what art & science electives EC offers ...

Hi all... I'm interested in starting the progrom at Exclesior so that I may minimize time away from my two babies... Which brings me to the reason I'm posting... I met with TCN today... No I am not signing up with them.. Thanks to you guys... I read a great deal of this thread and decided against it... I'm aware of the fact that I can do this on my own and GOD willing the help of you all.. :)... I just wanted to get a better understanding of how everything works.. So I booked the appointment.. The only thing I'm confused on now is TCN says that I have only 6 general education requirements.. They are: English Comp. 6 semester hours Prin. of Public Speaking 3 semester hours Life Span Dev. Psych 3 semester hours Sociology 3 semester hours Anatomy and Phys. 6 semester hours Microbiology 3 semester hours Problem is these classes total 24 semester hours.. I've been to Exclesiors website and they say a total of 31 credits of General Ed. requirements are needed... I have no previous college credit as my training was done through a Tech school... Can someone help me?? I can't seem to get through to Exclesior... Is TCN right?? If not what are the other classes needed.. Thank you all so very much in advance..

Hi there.. Just this weekend I began looking into Triton's program... I was wonderful if you could tell me if the general education classes are included in the program (meaning can they be taken concurrently with the nursing classes).. And how long is the lpn-rn program... Thanks

I'm here in the southern suburbs of illinois, right outside of chicago... My first LPN job started me at $25... Hope this Helps..

Hi There.. I was just wondering why you felt as though you made a mistake in attending Excelsior.. I have a meeting on tuesday to start the program and I've been really uncertain about taking this route.. My only problem is I have exactly one year to complete my RN training and all the schools require a ton of prereq's... What do you think?? Should I do it?? I'm already an LPN.. So I figured it should be easier for me, since I just finished a program... Help me please!!
