Hello Everyone!

My name is Derrick, I am 24 y/o from Sacramento, CA. I have been an LVN for 2 years and a CNA for 2 years as well. I was accepted into the AP LVN to RN program bridge at Butte College in Oroville (near Chico).

I am very excited to enter this program as at last, I can finally fulfill my dream of becoming a registered nurse. :D

In the Sacramento area, we have a lot of LVN to RN bridges but the thing is that the requirements and placement are ever getting hard to get into. and at the same token, the acceptances are based on space available (ie. if someone flunks out of the 1st-2nd sems). Alternatively, I was going to go to ISU (Indiana State University) but was shocked by the price of it and clinicals are questionable.

Nevertheless, if this is the Lords plan, so be it. I just wanna say good luck to everyone who is going to take the next step to become an RN!:nurse:

PS: Also, a big big big thanks to the guy who created this website, as this has given me a tool for finding info about the right school for my needs.
