- How much does College of Nursing & Technology cost?

- Is College of Nursing & Technology an approved vocational nursing program?
- Yes. College of Nursing & Technology appears on the California Board of Vocational Nursing and Psychiatric Technicians list of approved programs. Approval means graduates are eligible to sit the NCLEX-PN; it is not a ranking or an endorsement of quality.
- Is an LVN the same as an LPN?
