  12. Add me to the list!! I start April 1st for the RN to BSN program. I will have 65 credits going into the program; however, I still want to finish the program in two terms (finger crossed!). Orientation...

    Work Tablet

    Anyone else "only" going for LPN?

    I have been an RN since June of this year who had previously been an LPN since 2009. I had no intentions at first to further my education when I first obtained my LPN license. But like another poster...
