I am also in the same boat...deciding whether to start Concorde in October, or finish my pre-req's and get on the wait list. From what I understand (and this is only my personal research) you can do the LVN program at Concorde or Maric and then transfer to a LVN-RN program as long as your pre-req and GE classes are done at an accredited school. For example, if you did all the science and english/psychology classes neccessary for the RN program at a CC then you could do the LVN program and then transfer wherever since those pre-req classes would be transferrable. I don't know if this is what I will do, but looking for some ideas along with the thousands of others out there trying to choose!
