Accelerated BSN: Purdue or Chamberlain?

[Shannon King, CNA]

Hello,

I am currently retaking science courses and pursuing my ASN at my local community college with the intent to pursue the RN to BSN program through Purdue University. 

I am also in communication with Chamberlain University for their accelerated BSN program (I do currently hold a bachelors in a non-nursing field). I am looking for advice on programs. I know a little bit about Purdue as it is a Big 10 school and know only what I have researched on Chamberlain.

I am looking for feedback or experiences you have had with either school as well as recommendations? I like that Chamberlain offers a potential BSN in 2-3yrs, but my current route will be about $20k less with another 3-4 year commitment.

Thank you for your time!
