Community Colleges With LPN to RN Bridge Programs

Bridge programs are accelerated programs designed to help students with a current Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) license become Registered Nurses (RNs). These programs are typically offered at community colleges and lead to the completion of an associate degree.
