Advice

Hi,

Im a sophomore in high-school and I am in the process of looking at colleges. I want to go to a college in Nashville TN. Ive been looking at Lipscomb University. They have a 5 year program that has a partnership with Vanderbilt. You have to do 3 years at Lipscomb then 2 years including summers at Vanderbilt. Or I could choose the 4 year program and go to Lipscomb for 2 years and then another college like Harding University, Belmont University, Tennessee Tech, Austin Peay and others. But I couldnt go to Vanderbilt. I would love to attend Vanderbilt full time but it is just so expensive...............Also what is the major difference between a BSN and a MSN? I know you have to specialize in MSN but what about BSN? Also what is the salary difference between a MSN anda BSN? Thanks for the help.

MSN tends to be administrators and educators. Sometimes BSN opens administration doors. If MSN/BSN remain clinical nurses, there is little or no pay differance from ASN. Though hospital educators do well, college educators often make less than clinical nurses.

Futnursestudent, I admire someone who starts looking at possibilities prior to taking that big step. A BSN will offer you more opportunities than bedside nursing. The pay will be the same for the first your bedside nursing years but if you find a unique route to follow the pay and incentives will increase a bit. As a BSN you will be able to work as a drug rep. or a medical equipment sales person and if you wish a specialty with some travel time this is unique. A BSN can supervise in a hospital, be ADON or DON in a LTC facility. Management positions and working independantly are the options more often offered to BSN than ADN..
