Answer:

Someone gave you incorrect information. I am an RN and have never been an LPN. There are plenty of RN programs in colleges across the country, you just need to decide whether you want to be an associate or bachelors prepared RN. LPN school is completely different and most in my area aren't even affiliated with a college. Also a lot of LPN positions are being phased out so they are limited as to where they can work.
