Work for ASN? ASN - BSN programs?

Hi Nashima, I'm sorry I can't help you with any job information. Although a preference such as the one you describe would surprise me -- I wouldn't let that put you off from applying to the areas you are interested in moving to in Southern CO.

Concerning the additional education, I would definitely check out the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center bridge program. If memory serves, they excel at doing distance learning, so it wouldn't be much of a problem to pursue it remotely. Whether there is a waitlist, though, I don't know. The only waitlists I've heard repeatedly are getting in the first time!

You may want to put the brakes on after moving here, enjoy the new setting for a year or so, and apply then since you would be a resident.
Just something to think about...

Good, glad to be of some help. And if you think the out of state NURSING tuition is bad, you should do some brief research on out of state MEDICAL SCHOOL tuition at U of C.

OUTRAGEOUS!

Hi! I am thinking you shouldn't have too much trouble getting a job as an ASN in southern CO. I know it is more of an issue if you live in Denver or one of the big cities, but not so much where I live. In the town that I work in, even the charge nurse is an ASN because there are not enough BSNs who want to work/live out here. I know that both the hospitals in LaJunta and Lamar hire ASNs. I would suggest applying for any jobs you are interested in, many 'prefer' a BSN, but will hire an ASN who demonstrates competency. Best of luck!
