I recently graduated with a BA degree in anthropology and am interested in pursuing a career in nursing. I know that I would like to get my Masters and was wondering if there are programs that combine both the BSN and MSN in one? Thank you!

What kind of MSN are you looking for?
There are a number of entry level MSN-CNL programs. There are also MSN programs for a variety of specializations although for most of them, you may need to declare your specialization when applying for the program.

I know the University of Arizona has that option. Don't know how you feel about moving to sunny Tucson, AZ though.

Here is a list of 63 Entry Level MSN programs. These programs enroll individuals with BA/BS degrees in another field, and award a MSN degree after 2-3 years of study. The list is organized by state. Some of these will award specialty MSN degrees (NP, CNS, etc), and others will have generalist MSN degrees (CNL).
