Located in Alexandria, Virginia, GHNTS offers a full-time program for "transitional" LPN students to attain an Associate Degree in Nursing and be eligible for RN licensing exams. Like most other LPN-to-RN programs, it requires courses in both general education (such as communications and psychology) and in nursing (pharmacology, clinical work, etc.). For LPNs, the program takes 18 months (as opposed to 24 months for new nursing students).
