++Should I transfer from La Guardia Community College!?!?

Published

Hello everybody! I have finished my prerequisites at La Guardia Community College with a GPA of 3.95 and applied for the

nursing program with eventual start at fall 2010. Very prob I will get into the nursing program. Since it takes at least 2 years

to finish the clinical program I was thinking that it is a waste of time because i could be finishing a BSN in three years. So

that is why I would like to transfer to a BSN program. Since it is becoming very difficult to get into nursing programs lately I am

undecided between the security of an ASN at La Guardia or transferring towards a BSN. Also moving outside NYC in places like

Stony Brook or Binghamton would be a problem since I can't afford a car at the moment. At the same time most of the job adds

I see ''prefer'' a BSN. If you have any ideas or suggestions I would greatly appreciate them, Thanks.

Ervin,

I just spoke to a doctor yesterday. I went for my physical. SHe told me after I am done to come to her b/c they are always hiring for LPN's and RN's. She asked if I knew anyone who's a newly grad and needs a job in nursing. I told her that all my friends that grad all got a job. She said well if you know anyone to send her way. SHe's in touch with many agencies and they're looking for nurses. She also told me there's a shortage. I don't think its that hard to find a job in nursing....

Are currenly enrolled in any nursing programs or finished the nursing program?
