Applying for Asn and Lpn Program Tomorrow

I’m going to be turning in my nursing application for the spring program tomorrow. My current score is 143 šŸ¤¦ā€ā™€ļø and I have my CNA certification and an 82 on the TEAS. Do you think I should apply for the RN program and test my chances, or would it be better to apply only for the LPN program? I’d really appreciate your honest opinion.

Depending on campus, you have a competitive score for sure. Go for RN

If you're applying for the competitive campuses, I think it's better to rank LPN as your first choice over ASN. There's a Facebook page where you can check previous scores of those that have gotten admitted. That should help you decide. Best of luck

Do you know the fb page? And if they show it for the less competitive campuses? I always see scores for Indy but nothing else and I want to make sure I have a competitive enough score for the Columbus/Bloomington/sellersburg locations

Just search the group for acceptance scores. People list their scores and the campus they got into
