Age: 33 Mother of 1 Start: October 2012 End: November 2013 Genesee Valley BOCES LPN LPN is a stepping stone to my RN I love the program and content. My classmates are great and my instructors are awsome. In my 3rd semester, only 5 months left : )

From what I understand it's a nursing curriculum. Can be used online in conjunction with text books. I am actually using it right now. As far as LPN to RN, I am under the impression it's a placement type exam. The RN program I am looking into uses Excelsior exams, depending on your grade depends on which semester of the bridge you are placed in. Hope this helps : )

I am currently enrolled through an Adult Education program through BOCES (continuing education) I'm not sure where you are located but I totally recommend it. I'm 33, a full time student, work full time and a mom and wife. It's fast paced, 12 months, but we are accredited, and all of our hours/credits are transferable to an LPN/RN bridge program. We also get bumped to the top of the waiting lists for RN programs (depending on GPA). Cost is very reasonable $ 11k the only thing it doesn't cover is the cost of our NCLEX. Hope this helps. I'm in Western NY
