Because only those for profit schools teach LPNs in the state of Connecticut. The state technical high schools used to teach LPN as an adult education program, but that stopped several years ago, I believe due to funding.

Those students choose those schools because the admission process is so easy. The entrance exam is a joke. They don't require prerequisites like the RN programs at the community colleges. They only care about you being able to sign for the student loan.

If you have decent credit, you might be able to just use your existing vehicle and small amount of cash as a down payment on a used vehicle at a regular car dealership. For a used car dealership specifically, I heard J&M in naugatuck has good quality used cars, although I never bought from them myself.

If you have bad credit and little cash for a down payment, you'll probably be stuck going to a "buy here pay here" used dealership, of which there are many all over. They help people with bad credit get a vehicle, but charge much more than it is worth because they no these people have no other option. Those dealerships sometimes put a device in the car that prevents you from starting it if you are behind on the payments.
