In order to be an LPN in New York, a person must be at least 17 years old and have a high school diploma or GED, plus at least nine months of nursing education. There are many program options. A candidate can complete a practical nursing program approved by the New York State Education Department, a practical nursing program approved by another state board, or a military program that New York deems satisfactory. Graduates of general RN programs are also eligible for licensure as LPNs. Read “Choosing an LPN program in New York” to get a better idea of how to evaluate LPN programs prior to selecting one.

There are some practical nursing programs in New York that admit 11th or 12th graders. Students should realize that the license is dependent on completing general studies as well as nursing coursework – a copy of one’s high school diploma or GED must be attached to the LPN application.
