Hi! Sorry I don't know about any 1 yr programs near Detroit. Could you please post the name of the 1 yr program with no prereqs in Ohio? I didn't know about that one.
Thanks a lot! Good Luck!

st clair county community college is about 40 minutes from detroit (detroit it huge!!! and i don't know where exactly you're coming from). i went there and had a friend who drove from warren to go there.
there are no "prereqs", you are able to take the a&p and psych in your first semester (that's what i did). had no trouble. there program runs from january to december. it's tough, but doable.
it's a straight shot up 94 to get to st. clair. i wish you luck. i believe oakland community college and schoolcraft also have LPN, as does wayne county community, but i don't know if they require prereqs
good luck in whatever you choose. st. clair has an excellent reputation around here!
theres a couple,toledo school of practicaol nursing,and brown mackie college.hope i helped

Wayne County Community College does "not" have an LPN program, just the Associate degree RN program and it does require pre req's. There are a few LPN schools in the Toledo area that seem to be nice. I don't think there is a wait list either, but I could be wrong on that one. I called a few them before I got in to WCCCD's nursing program. Good luck.

Ill stick it out in college but I am just wondering do the 1 year LPN programs that these establishments are offering allow you to move up to RN since there are no pre reqs?

Hi, i went through a one year program through latoya health ed and training center in saginaw, thats roughly 2 hours from detroit. Its a brand new program , its one year and it costs 10,000 dollars for the whole duration.
It was an intensive program and personaly i had a good experience but im not sure i would do it again if i was to do it all over.
Im going to start my Rn in spring since i had a lot of college credit i was going through saginaw valley and it was takint too d,,,, long
PM me if you need more info

Sandey- you should check around there are some schools that have lpn to RN programs. I know Monroe community college has it...maybe something around you might as well. Good luck!

Sandey37, Your experience with Latoya health ed was ok? I have prereqs for ADN but did not get in. I am looking to do my LPN then pursuing RN due to current time constraints
Any info would be helpful.
