  1. Hospitals only hiring BSN degrees, and no ADN?

    I think it depends on the person and there situation. My ADN only cost about $10,000. But for me to get my BSN it would of been at least $50,000-$80,000 and i would of had to get loans. It was easy for me to work and pay for my nursing degree out of ...
  2. Hospitals only hiring BSN degrees, and no ADN?

    It seems like there is a war between ADN's and BSN's. Be kind, because everyone you meet is fighting their own battle too.
  3. RN vs. BSN

    I think it might be different in St. Louis because before I decided whether to get my RN or BSN i spoke with a lot of ADN nurses who had recently graduated from my school and they said pretty much everyone has found a job soon after they graduated, e...
  4. Starting STLCC's nursing program! Any advice???

    i applied in May 2010 to all 3 campuses and i got into Flo this fall. I wave my acceptance because I didn't have A&P finished. I got a letter from Forest Park and Meramec about a month ago.
  5. RN vs. BSN

    I'm not saying you shouldn't get your BSN. Im sure eventually a BSN will be the minimum requirement for a registered nurse. I think depending on your situation, its smarter to get your ADN then bridge to your BSN and let the hospital pay for it. If ...
  6. RN vs. BSN

    Im not saying it doesn't open more doors then that. But for a new nurse a lot of the benefits of having your BSN won't make much of a difference until you have some experience. My friend actually already looked into that. The problem is she's now on ...
  7. RN vs. BSN

    I live in the St. Louis area and from what i can see some hospitals prefer BSN but that doesn't mean you can't find a job with only your ADN. I am getting my RN, i have a friend who just graduated with her BSN. She has $50,000 in student loans and i ...

  11. Starting STLCC's nursing program! Any advice???

    I'm definitely getting scared! All people keep telling me is that its so hard and Im planning on taking A&P2 along with first semester nursing classes. Did you take any other classes other than nursing while you were in the program?

  13. Starting pay new ADN in St. Louis?

    oh ic. Sounds like tech jobs would be pretty hard to get since Im sure a lot of nursing students apply. Do you have to have any other experience other then nursing school to be a nurse tech? I've never worked in a hospital before.
  14. Starting STLCC's nursing program! Any advice???

    thank you guys for your help! i was thinking about quitting my job, did both of you hold jobs while in the nursing program? Im very lucky in the fact that i don't have children and i have financial support so i don't have to work while in the program...
  15. Saint Louis Community College Wait List
