In need of help


i'm currently in a technical college, and graduating soon with my RRT (registered respiratory therapist) and really need a few questions answered. First of all, if I gain a associates degree from a technical college, is it possible to transfer to get my BSN? I know there are Rn to BSN programs, but is there one for respiratory therapist? will schools accept any of my credits earned from a tech college? Also, if anyone has any info or knows of an online school to possible check into, please let me know. im very stressed out about this. I really want to get a BSN. PLEASE someone help? Thank you.

You will need to contact a school and ask if they will accept the credits. I know that you haven't found one yet, but the school you choose for your BSN will be the only one that can truely answer that for you.

As far as the degrees, I have read that one school has an accelerated plan for lvn/emt to get an ADN, but I've never seen one for anything else besides RN-BSN.

Try google or yahoo, maybe you can come up with something that will suit your needs.

Good luck!
