Sorry, my senior-moment fingers typed on their own again.
In my post above, I was referring to Licensed Nurse Practitioners,
which should be abbreviated as L.N.P.
But then I typed L.P.N, which (to me) means Licensed Practical Nurse.
I'm not sure, but I think the L.P.N programs have been phased out.
They were also 2-year under-graduate programs, while R.N.'s
were 2- or 4-year post-graduate degrees/licensures.
But I do agree with business about non-transfer of credits.
My daughter has a 4-year R.N. + many years of experience + a Master's of Nursing degree.
She too was told by some Schools of Nursing that her Master's degree credits were not transferable.
To get her L.N.P. license she would essentially have to start over as if she were at the RN level.
She is just finishing her 4-semesters of full-time course work and 600 clinical training hours
... next is the State Boards Exam and she'll be a full-fledged L.N.P.
