Hey guys, I will be starting college soon with the goal of obtaining a BSN and then advaning to a CRNA program. I noticed there are many programs that allow an LPN or RN to obtain a BSN (or higher) this is in particular looks nice:
LPN-to-BSN
This program offers the licensed practical nurse or licensed vocational nurse (LVN) the opportunity to attain the BSN degree in just four academic semesters.
So going this route would take only 3 years instead of 4 for the BSN. You guys see any drawbacks doing it this way?
Thanks

make sure there are no waitlists for clinicals in either of the programs...some times they don't necc advertise those...
I know some LPN-ADN bridger programs here in Ohio require you to work 1000 hours as an LPN before you can go on to get your ADN...I havent heard of any LPN-BSN bridge programs though....
