How do I upgrade NYS CNA license to NYS LPN license?
Asked by krnboyd21a
I need to further my career due to a sudden increase in cna's in NYC, and the increasing need for lpn's and rn's. I have limited funds so any info regarding nursing schools & funding is needed also!

Best Answer:
Technical Colleges offer LPN courses. They are usually inexpensive when compared to state colleges. You will be done in about 13 months. Good Luck! PS check out a PELL grant for your education....it pay for almost everything and you don't have to pay it back.

Check with your local community college. CC's are usually a little cheaper than tech colleges. CC LVN programs are also only 13 months, though you will need to some some pre-req's. talk with their finacial aid office for possible grants or loans.

See if they offer bridge courses. I know there is a bridge course from LPN to RN here in Florida.
