    rock hopper replied to marisa.m's topic in General Students

    Im not in nursing school yet, but in CC you get your LPN on your way to your ADN, no? So couldn't you conceivably work as an LPN on a couple nights/weekends while in nursing school if you got your LPN...

    rock hopper replied to Ryandoug72's topic in School, College Programs
