Hi everyone,
Please help with some insights.
I got accepted into an RN program through our local cc (ADN) and should start in Fall 2016. I'm still waiting to hear from an ABSN program in two weeks or so.
If I got accepted into the ABSN program, the idea of one year program is very attractive to me since I'm in my mid 40's.
Cost: ADN ($7k) vs ABSN ($120k)
Job: does the ABSN grads have better chance than ADN grads to land a starting position, considering they both have no prior experience working at a medical facility.
How about the Bay Area? Is it worth it to spend $120k and then still fighting your way in to get a starting job?
Please help.
Thank you.
