Hi. Needing some encouragement...I spent this semester working on prerequisites for the RN program. My husband and I looked at our finances - there is no way for my husband's income to sustain us until I graduate the program. I was looking at our local ADN program and I wouldn't graduate until 2029. I'm looking at the LPN program instead - I could start in Spring of 2027 and it's only 12 months. We're a young family with three kids. The LPN program would get me to work faster, we need the money. Anyone find themselves in a similar situation and went the LPN route and bridges to an RN program later? I'm 34 now, so I feel like time I'm getting old. Also, reading all the stories of "Just go get your RN! You're doing the same amount of work for less pay!" has me feeling 😮💨
Edit: I live in MN!
