RN or entry level MSN? night classes? day jobs?

by Noaloha

Hi! I just found this forum and it looks like it will be really helpful figuring out all the school stuff ...Right now I'm looking into prereq courses (all the community colleges nearby were waitlisted this semester for the evening courses I needed) and trying to figure out which direction to go.... I have a Bachelors in General Studies/Human Services and I'm not sure if I should get an Associates in Nursing then bump the RN up to a MSN once I start working.... or do an entry level master's program (they aren't as easy to find it seems). Also, I currently live in Campbell but may move to Marin county...I work full time and need night courses...but most Associates programs seem to have day classes and a lot of master's programs look like they are full time. So, I was wondering if anyone had any info/advice on how to swing the work/school thing without having to be in school forever.... and any school programs or day jobs you have found that are accommodating to work/school. I'd rather not do the online courses.....Wow, I hope that made sense.
Thanks!
Sarah
