I know this question has probably been asked a thousand times but.. I am going to Ivy Tech right now but just taking pre reqs. I have been taking my pre reqs for the RN program but I still need my two ANP classes. My question is after I complete my two ANP classes I could try to get into the LPN program or the RN program (and I would have a few other pre reqs for the RN program still needed). At first I really wanted to just go all the way and do the RN program but now I am starting to think if I go into the LPN program I will be done sooner and be able to get a job sooner and maybe have a little money once in a while lol and I could always go back and do the LPN to RN program later... but my question is would it be a waste of time do you think? I mean to do the whole LPN program just to jump right back into it to do the LPN to RN?? I really want to be in a nursing home or home health care and I guess my question is do you think that it would be easy for me to get a job as an LPN in one of those settings and go back and get the RN later? Sorry if this sounds confusing I'm confused!!:sstrs: Thanks so much for any advice! Also does anyone go to Ivy Tech and know someone with dreadlocks in the nursing program? Just wondering I have been thinking about getting them but my mom told me they are VERY strict about hair and dress (which I understand.. I just didn't know if that counted as "bad")

When I got my books online there was an option to use my financial aid. Where it said the type of credit card there was also a financial aid option but I go to the ft wayne campus so maybe that was why but I think the online book store is the same for all because I had to choose which campuses my classes were at (I took some pre reqs online)
