Can I eventually become a RN after reclassifying to 68C?

Absolutely! Nothing stopping you but yourself. Out of 24 students from my 68C class, at least 7 of us are RNs now, and 4 are PAs. Feel free to contact me if you have any other questions about the program. Good luck!

You can but would need an additional 2-3 years of college depending whether you went for ADN or BSN (BSN is requirement to commission).

Yup, lots of 68cs go that route. Look into AECP- Army enlisted commissioning program. One caveat, if you do get your RN you must maintain your LPN license as long as you are enlisted.

I was a former 68C who eventually became an RN and then a Nurse Anesthetist. There are many routes for an LPN to become an RN and many schools have bridge programs specifically designed for that transition.

Or go PA. If you go RN don't stop until you get your masters.

Yes, after you go to college for it. Contrary to popular belief, 68C is not a shortcut to a BSN. But it will give you the experience you will need to apply and contacts for letters of recommendation.

I needed to get my military credits collected so as to attend a local community college. I contacted the V.A who then contacted the army. The Army was able to give a complete list of all my training and the college credits they qualified for. There is a way, If you are on active duty and are having trouble finding the answer. Contact the Veterans Administration where you are. The will know the offices you need to be in contact with in the military. The V.A. does this all the time, they actually are a very good resource.

For sure. It’s a very common route and will provide good experience for the transition. There’s some great resources and programs specific to this as well.

Im a current 68C who’s recently graduated the school from a reclass. If you have any questions feel free to send me a message.
