I have been an LPN for 28 years, and need to finish my nursing degree (as most in the healthcare say, "why didn't you finish and become a nurse?"  I have NO choice but to work AT LEAST full time if not 60 hours per week. (hubby lost job along with interest in finding another). At this time, I have rather flexible hours with oncall every other week.


Is there any REPUTABLE online schooling out there?  I have contacted the college network, but they sell the list to lots of others and I average 20-30 phone calls per day on cell and even tho asked not to, at work as well.  I told them to go away.  Iknow many who start these programs, spend a lot of money and never finish.


Ideas?  I appreciate any help.

I can't personally attest to any LPN to RN schools. I can recommend University of Phoenix, which is one of the advertisers here. I was involved in their RN to BSN program. Not sure if they have an LPN to RN program. They are very good. They are also very expensive.
