LPN TO RN QUESTIONS (POINTS?



This Question From LPN Nursing NCLEX | 1 Answer


I have an associates degree in science and I graduate a lpn program in may. i really don’t understand the process. I see alot of schools offering the lpn to RN program but this doesn’t come with a bachelors. Then I would have to go back to school in a RN to BSN program. but a BSN is just a associates in science and a associates in nursing right? so what happens if i already have one part (associate in science) and a LPN license. what steps would i have to take from there? and how long would it take for me get my BSN? does having an associates in science and an LPN license give me an associates in nursing? (ADN) and if so would i qualify to sit for the NCLEX-RN? thanks

    when someone is a basic RN…that means they have the associates
    a BSN is a bachelors degree in nursing
    and MSN is masters in nursing

    Just because someone is an RN does not mean they have their bachelors.
    You can do your RN or BSN at this point, just depends on what path you want to take.
