Yes it can. Many colleges have an RN completion program. Many community colleges offer the program at an associates level also. Typically, they will give you approximately 20 credits with proof of your LPN license towards the RN. However, the receiving institution may require that all other general education courses particular to the RN program be completed first. Read the following carefully and follow through on the link provided below this answers box.

You can obtain this information by going to www.collegeboard.com/splash/ and using the sites College MatchMaker search engine, or you can also click on the related links section (College Board) indicated below this answer box, which will take you directly to the site. You can research colleges and universities by name, or by programs of study, or by geographical location, size, or combinations of part or all of them etc. The site will provide you with a list of institutions based on your request.
