I just wanted to share some info with you. I am currently a student going for my ADN at MCI and I already have a Bachelors in Management from DeVry. I was just on the phone with the University of Phoenix because I was interested in getting my BSN online after I graduate since I have lots of prior online college experience and know it will work better with a busy RN's schedule. Well I just found out that since I already have a Bachelors I can go straight into the Masters of Nursing program. This I did not know, I thought to get a Masters in Nursing you had to have a BSN, but apparently not the case. Some of you may say Duh, but I am totally shocked.
I figured I would share the good news with everyone since I see that a lot of people hold Bachelors degrees in different fields. I of course do not know how it works with other schools, but this is how it works with University of Phoenix. I am prior military and a lot of my friends have attended this school and speak highly of it.
I also wanted to see if anyone had any feedback on this.
Edit: I forgot to mention that you have to take 3 BSN classes before you start the MSN, it is called a "Bridge Program" for students who hold a Bachelors in something other then Nursing.
