I recently graduated from Bergen community college with my AA in Liberal Arts. I've decided that I want to go into nursing and instead of to RN to BSN I want to explore the options that my AA degree could provide for me. This semester I'm finishing up the prerequisites for the nursing program. I would like to go straight into a BSN program, but I'm wondering where I would stand as far as transferring and credits with my AA. How long my program would be since I already have an AA? Is it worth doing RN to BSN? Or could I finish faster going straight to a BSN program? Feedback is greatly appreciated!!!

State schools have articulation agreements to accept appropriate credits from community colleges. Start with the schools directly plus each school may have different pre-req and GPA requirements
