Florida ADN and BSN

Hi

I am currently in an ADN program and I have heard of dual enrollment with other colleges to complete BSN courses while in ADN program. I am interested in this as I would like to get my BSN as soon as possible. Does anyone have any experience with this in the state of Florida?

I would be interested to see how this works.

I completely understand your interest in getting a jump-start, but "Nursing" courses (clinically focused with associated practicum) are part of a cumulative curriculum - they have to be taken in a particular sequence because each successive course builds upon the knowledge & skills of the previous ones. So, I don't see how you could take these types of courses at two different schools, in different types of programs (ADN vs BSN) at the same time.

If a nursing course is entirely didactic (no clinical component), it might work but you'd still have to be admitted to that BSN program in order to take it.... and the basic requirement for ADN-BSN programs is that you first have an ADN.

OTOH, there's nothing to stop you from enrolling in multiple schools to take 'general ed' courses that you'll need for that BSN while you're still working on your ADN. This is not uncommon. The major problems would be juggling time commitments & paying the multiple tuition/ fees that are tacked on at each place.
