I have a appointment to meet with a rep from the campus next week and wanted to get a little feed back form all of you first. I am current enrolled at MCCC and was going to apply for both of there co op programs, but I am also considering going for my LPN first and then continuing afterward for my RN. I would love to hear fom those of you that hav attended or applied and what your experience has been. Does the program you attend for your LPN affect your eligibility for LPN to RN bridge programs? Have any of you found it easier to get in to RN programs having already completed your LPN or just the opposite? Finally, what would my employment options be as an LPN in New Jerey? Are there options other the LTC? Like Corrections, Physicians offices, Surgical centers, Mental / Behavioral Health, or rehabilitation centers? Thanks in Advance

I am currently a student a mccc working on my pre reqs to apply for one of their co op programs, but I have recently started thinking about getting my LPN first and then continuing for my RN afterwards. I have heard that there is quite a pay difference but I have no clue what most facilities offer to New Grads. I know that as an LPN in NJ I would not be able to work in a hospital, but are there any other options besides LTC? Correctional, Home care, physicians offices etc.

I am actually in the very early stages of researching my nursing education. I am 27 years old and looking to go back to school for my BSN. I do have a number of credits from an out of state community college from several years ago. I am wondering where do I go from here? Is anyone in the same boat? I have done a lot of online research but still have many questions. I know of several colleges in the area that have nursing programs, but can find little info on admissions and requirement info. I am also wondering if they are as competitive as some of the other schools that I have heard people talking about on here. Basically I am just looking for some guidance.......any experience or info would be greatly appreciated.
