Hi, I am actually trying to find an online LPN program

Hi Najani - This is not something I know much about so be careful not to listen too closely.

I think that LPN degrees can not be completed entirely online.  I think there are some practical things that nurses must learn in a "hands on" manner.  However, I also think there are some programs that might allow you to take some of the required courses online while others might be face to face.  In this regard you should look first to your local hospitals and community colleges.  They will know the local rules and regulations and be able to point you in the right direction.  In the meantime, look at this:

I would also like to say that there is a special place in Heaven that is reserved for nurses.  If you don't know this it's because you've been fortunate enough in life that you've never had a long stay in the hospital.

You can't complete your LPN online.  I called my local LPN/RN program to check on requirements I got bad news.

There are classes you can take online, however they aren't going to transfer  into the LPN program.  The classes I have found online do not have a lab which is the only way it can transfer in.

Some of the class you may be able to take if you haven't already done so.  The program i will go into requires Psy 101, ENG 101, SPeech 101, SOC 101.  All of which you can find online.  You may be able to take the Pharmacology class online..

Again I would check with the program you will transfer into.

Hope this helps!
