Planned In-Person Service Interruptions

RCSJ is excited to announce that we are preparing a new student experience for registration. This new system will launch soon, and while we make the transition from our old Portal and Self-Service systems, some areas will experience in-person service interruptions from June 9 through June 20 as employees attend training. Please note that during this time, all course registration services through the online systems are still available.

​The LPN-RN Track program is designed​ for students who wish to enter the healthcare profession as a Registered Nurse (RN). The program combines general education with nursing courses to prepare current licensed practical nurses (LPN) for entry-level Registered Nursing (RN) practice.

Upon successful completion of the program, graduates are eligible to apply to take the National Council Licensing Examination (NCLEX-RN) and apply to a Board of Nursing for licensure as registered nurses.

Students who apply to the LPN-RN Track program must hold a current PN license in good standing and have graduated from an accredited PN program.
