No- you can get either. An RN can either have an Associate's Degree (ASN) or a Bachelor's (BSN), and you do not have to have an ASN to get a BSN- but there are more ASN-BSN programs out there than LPN-BSN.

(Just read this, and hoping I didn't make it more complicated than needed). :)

Yes there is a program in Hawaii. Does anyone have any new info about the Oklahoma location? I would like to do this program but no one has any definite answers about dates, time and locations of clinicals? Has anyone started clinicals at UOP yet? Thanks! :nurse:

Hello fellow Nurses!

I am a new LVN grad with just about 2 months experience working at a Subacute Pediatric facility. I wanted to get some feedback regarding "Online" LVN-BSN programs. For those of you who have that experience online...please share...Reason being is that I got accepted into an "Online" LVN-BSN program at Chico State University. I would start in Fall 2008 if I accept. A friend of mine who graduated with me from my VN Program also got accepted so we'd have eachother as study buddies throughout the program. I want to get feedback and other ppl's opinions because I want to make sure I am making the right decision. What was your experience going through an LVN-BSN program online? Or what is your opinion on "online" lvn-bsn programming?

Thank you in advance!!!

I have to let the director of nursing know by May 17th of my decision.

Hi everyone,

my husband is 7 weeks away from geting his lvn degree...so i have been lookin at schools for him. Here in CA things are a bit crazy, maybe it's the same way all around the country. it seems that he can't get in any of the anatomy, physio and micro classes so we have been looking all around for schools, even as far as St Kitts

Anyway i came across UOP and i have a question for the students in it already. Can he take human growth and development at a community college or does it have to be through uop?

We are looking at the AZ and CO uop. I'm an RN already so we can move where ever needed for him.

what other classes should he take in order to minimize the General education classes he would have to take w/ uop? (he has intro to psy, intro to sos, developmental psy, history, spanish, english, pol sci,)

any help or info is more than welcomed.

isn't there an LVN/LPN to BSN program with UOP in Hawaii too? I think so...
Correct me if I'm wrong please :smackingf

Yes, there is one in Hawaii. Practically every LPN in my hospital goes there.

Can anyone share their experiences with this program? I have a BA already and just graduated with a LPN certificate. I'm exploring every option and don't mind relocating.
