Does anyone know of a program that allows 68W with a Paramedic to challenge the LPN NCLEX?

The Air Force has a program for the 4N's to challenge the LPN NCLEX license and this allows for an accelerated program to BSN. It's through Missouri or Mississippi State. I was wondering if anyone knew of one for Army 68W with a Paramedic degree.

One item I found was https://www.theclassroom.com/how-to-use-military-experience-to-become-an-lpn-13583514.html. I don’t know if it will be helpful. Albany State University in Albany, GA merged with Darton College, also in Albany. They had a paramedic to ADRN track prior to the merger, they may still have it. Also there was a community college outside Atlanta that had a paramedic to ADRN program as well.

Thanks for the info everyone. Our state has paramedic to RN bridge programs but I am talking about just challenging the LPN NCLEX without taking courses. The AF has a program that allows 4Ns to basically submit an application to take the test due to their AFSC which requires an EMT-B NREMT. I am a 68W but I I hold me EMT-P. I was curious if there were programs out there through different states (I am in ND and they don't have one) that allows you to apply and challenge the NCLEX-LPN test based on Paramedic and 68W experience. I know I would have to study for the exam and it's hard but if I already had my LPN, THE university in my state has an LPN to BSN Program accelerated program.

Have you checked with an army amedd officer recruiter? They normally know the ins and out of things like that.

Check the Army Cool program. I know it pays for you to take an NCLEX Prep course, but unsure if it will pay for the exam itself. COOL also goes hand in hand with the Army Credentialing Assistance Program which can provide up to 4K a year for credentialing as well as continuing education once you are
credentialed. That being said I am pretty confident NCLEX offers reimbursement for veterans and family members that challenge the exam if you you don’t qualify for assistance from these programs or they simply don’t have what you are looking for. I hope this helps.

Correct, it does pay for the NCLEX, however in order to take the NCLEX in my state, you need to submit your degree. I have an associates in Intensive Care Paramedic. The AF has a program that you can submit you AF training to a specific college program and they basically grant you the ability to challenge the NCLEX.
