LPN-RN Accelerated Bridge

If you are a licensed practical nurse seeking to continue your education the LPN-RN bridge is for you! This option is transitioning to a hybrid design (online and in person) and can be completed in 12 consecutive months. Laboratory and clinical experiences will occur on selected evenings and/or weekends, allowing you to meet responsibilities (work and family) and continue your education. This accelerated option is geared toward applicants who are CURRENTLY licensed as a practical nurse.

Spring 2026 Admission Cycle - Due to a staffing shortage, application to the PN-RN Bridge Program for the Spring 2026 admission cycle has been temporarily paused. Please continue to check our webpage for updates.
