I am trying to find a school online that offers LPN programs and am getting nowhere. I have been looking for a couple of weeks now and everytime I get medical billing or LPN to RN never a LPN program. Am i missing something? Should I be looking under a different program name instead of LPN? I need an online school because I'm a stay at home mom to a 1 year old with another on the way. Any advise would be greatly appricated.

I'm sorry but to my knowledge there are NO online LPN programs.  The only online nursing programs you will find will be LPN to RN or RN to BSN/MSN.  If you want your LPN you'll have to attend school for a minimum of one year at a technical school or community college.  There is just no way around it.

Thanks for the help, I was starting to think that was the case.

No problem - I hope you can find a program you can work around your schedule.  I worked full-time and went through my LPN program (actually worked 2 jobs).  After 12 years I'm going back to school for my RN and working full-time nights.  It's hard but I promise it can be done.  There are a ton of programs out there that can help with paying for school too that can supplement your income or even help you pay for childcare if you need it.  If you really want to do this, don't give up on it. 


Good luck!

I am responding on this thread too late but want to share source for LPN online schools and universities and hopefully it will be helpful to others. e.g.  http://www.askforeducation.com/top-online-nursing-schools.html
