Jay in Jackson Heights, New York 25 months ago	Hi- I will not have a high GPA for my LPN schooling. How hard is Helene Fuld to get into? From some, I hear it is fairly easy. Others tell me you have to beg to get in. I have a solid 3.0--barely. I am simply looking to become an RN. I wanted to steer clear of CUNY colleges because that's a risk. They seem to require 3.6-4.0 GPAs and make you take more classes, then apply..and if you are even accepted..it looks like there is a wait list. Has anyone been accepted into ANY Nursing program, in NYC, with a 3.2 GPA or less? If so, can you tell us where and if you recommend it? - Was this comment helpful?

PRawlins1@gmail.com in Westfield, Massachusetts 24 months ago	Jay in Jackson Heights, New York said: Hello, I would like an LPN-RN program. It can be BSN..or even an LPN-BSN. However, the only online program that I know of is Excelsior and it is NOT accepted in every state. The RN-BSN or RN-MSN programs are the ones that there seem to be no problems with when you complete them online. Most schools, for an LPN, are not online ones..and if they are..there are restrictions. My ultimate goal is to earn my MSN from a school/state where I do not have limitations once I graduate. I'm not picky @ all. The biggest thing that holds me back is the GPA situation. My overall GPA is barely a 3.0. My nursing school GPA is around a 3.25, but cumulative is what really hurts me. My state tests are HIGH, but nursing school is competitive. I'll go anywhere that I can commute, so long as it means I can obtain my RN license...and I have a chance. I'm already going to an over-priced college in the ghetto, it can't get any worse than it is now. Thanks for replying. :) Listen i am a graduate of excelsior, here in NYC, we have no problem, and even the states that is consider problems, fla, ca. and ga, the school is working with those states, DO NOT LISTEN TO EVERYTHING YOU HEAR, yes scruples, but the president of the college is working with those states, call the college for CORRECT INFORMATIONS. - Was this comment helpful?

gogo in Dallas, Texas 24 months ago	VEEB(Vocational Extension Education Board) LPN Program in Uniondale, Long Island,NY. If you would like to get your LPN in 9 months try this school. You can google the schools address. I received my LPN from VEEB in the mid 90's. I passed my state license exam my first try. They are still in the same location (Uniondale) it maybe a 10 month program now. If you maintain a A or strong B average you get direct entrance into Helene Fuld College of Nursing in Manhattan 1 year RN program. That's how it was back then, call or e-mail to see if this information is currently valid. - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse
mctavishcat in Indianapolis, Indiana 23 months ago	I'm actually in the exact situation. I'm going to school to be an LPN and then I want to transition into RN. I also have a BA in education. Please let me know if you find anything. Thanks for posting and good luck. - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse
cutescrubs in Valley Stream, New York 23 months ago	VEEB is an LPN program in Uniondale, NY. I will be graduating in 5 weeks. The program is now an 11 month day program. If you are able to maintain an 85 average in all your courses you can articulate to Helene Fuld College in Manhattan for the LPN to RN program, but they would rather you have 1 year of nursing experience as an LPN first. My mother got her RN from their and says the program is intense, but doable. - Was this comment helpful? Yes (7) / No (1) Reply - Report abuse

bebe in Bronx, New York 21 months ago	An LPN to RN Transition course and an LPN to RN program are different. An LPN to RN Transition course is a class that LPN take that will grant them 12 credits to enter an RN program. LPN to RN Program is an RN curriculum that LPN's take to complete their degree. Some schools require LPN to RN transition course &/or exam prior to entering(bridging) into their RN program. - Was this comment helpful? Yes (3) / No (2) Reply - Report abuse

punix0583 in Horseheads, New York 11 months ago	Johanna in South Richmond Hill, New York said: hi can i get that info as well im a new lpn and looking into a school for a lpn to rn BSN program as well thanks The school is located in Poughkeepsie, n.y., it is called Boces of dutchess county, i gave this infor to another student and it might be closed, but as you know some students drop out, so call them, otherwise go the Rn route directly thru distance learning, but this is limited unless you are a paramedic. If you have to wait, then take the prerequisites at a traditional school while waiting , so that time is not lost. - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse

California transfer student in Roseville, California 9 months ago	I need to transfer my first year nursing credits from the RN program I was enrolled in until my clinical teacher failed me the third semester. I have one year complete but no school will take me with the failing grade I received, Is Excelsior really an option that will help me earn a Nursing degree, what are the limitations that come with the Excelsior degree, is it an option that will bring me success or is it a waste of time? - Was this comment helpful?

Getting the LPN first is better in my opinion… that way it is easier to advance and you already have a nursing degree. In NYC nursing schools are very competitive especial RN schools.. Having the LPN puts your foot in the door wayyyy faster than Coming into nursing with No license. I know this from experience - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse
