About
In our fast-track Practical Nursing program, you'll prepare to become an LPN in as few as 12 months.3 You’ll learn from compassionate experts who have centered their working lives around helping nurses grow and succeed—from faculty members and academic advisors to tutors, financial aid experts and 24/7 tech support.
Our job is to support you from your very first step in our Practical Nursing program, including:
- Eight start dates per year
- No prerequisite coursework
- No waiting list at many campuses for qualified applicants
- No need to apply twice
Your courses will be online and on campus and will prepare you to take the NCLEX-PN®4 licensure exam and become a safe, practicing licensed practical nurse (LPN). The Practical Nursing Diploma program is a great way to get into a nursing role. Many LPNs are satisfied with their careers as a hands-on care provider. However, if you decide to advance your education to increase your scope of practice, we offer the bridge to becoming a registered nurse through our Professional Nursing (ADN/RN) or our Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree options.
