AS to BSN Question?

Published

So the college I'm currently taking classes at doesn't offer nursing classes but they told me that if I get my associates in science I'd be able to transfer to a university and get a BSN. I'm about to start my second year and I just want to see if anyone knows if that's possible or if my college just screwed me over and I just wasted my time. Because if I did waste my time I'd like to find out sooner than later.

What kinds of classes have you taken? I would suppose that as long as your prospective school will take your credits, anything can be applied to any degree.

I was required to get an associates in human biology before I could apply to my ASN program. However, the associates degree alone isn't enough for my local bachelors program. I had to also take stats, logic, and an extra couple humanities courses to meet the pre-req requirements for California State University BSN. I'm sure each program will have slightly different requirements, so your best bet is to contact the school you want to go to and find out how your classes will transfer and if there are any other additional classes you'll need.

To be clear, I'm earning my ASN at my community college, but then planning to do RN-BSN bridge later on, so I just got the pre-reqs for the BSN out of the way as I was completing my ASN pre-reqs.
