Hello all,
I'm sure this is a much over-asked question, but I am wondering whether it would be better to get an RN or BSN degree here in Minnesota. I specifically want to work in a hospital and have heard that it would be more advantageous to have a BSN.
However, because of money, I'm not sure I could afford to get a BSN right now. The only place I think I could go would be St. Kate's because it would allow me to keep my day job while attending the weekend college. Unfortunately they're advertising that it's $424/credit now. Ouch!
So anyway, to summarize: would I have any hope of working in a Twin Cities hospital with just an RN degree? Or do I really need a BSN to be competitive?
Thanks in advance for your help. I really enjoy reading what you guys have to say on this board.
