ADN or BSN? Already have a BS in Health Administration

[joey7364]

Hi!

I graduated a year ago with a BS in Health Administration. I would like to go back to school to get my RN license. I have been looking at some ABSN and BSN programs and they are both a lot of time, and money!

I have done some research and found that most hospitals prefer a RN with a BSN degree... I am looking for anyone who has advice on what to pursue. There is a ADN program in my hometown that is really well recognized and significantly cheaper than going for a BSN.

Ideally I want to become a nurse manager and am hoping that an ADN and my BS will be sufficient.

Thoughts, concerns? I live in Northern California, and would like to stay in this region however am willing to relocate.

To sum this confusing post up, does anyone think I will have a hard time getting a job (or lower salary) with a ADN and BS in Health Administration?

Thanks for any advice you can give
