BSN or ADN?

but for know I really just want to obtain my RN license to get some experience; so I would rather stay at RCC as its closer by

By the sounds of it you already have made your decision, while it's always a good thing to advance your career and degree, there is nothing wrong with the step-wise approach. Especially if you are wanting to get your feet wet first, and even make/earn a living.

Yes, there are facilities out there that require a minimum BSN, but it's not the standard as of yet.

With the new grad unemployment rate so high you will likely not be marketable without a BSN. So if you are wanting to get your ADN and work while getting your BSN it will be difficult. This is actually the route I chose due to moving. And I was job hunting for 9 months. I was only given interviews after I enrolled in a BSN program and added it to my resume.

I think it would be a waste of time to get an ADN.

As Samantha has stated, new grad unemployment (BSN/RN) is very very high in California. In my opinion, I would advise you to pursue your BSN because a lot of hospitals (that I have looked into) recommend having your BSN. You also got to remember which would give you a better chance of getting a job. If you graduate with your ADN/RN, would hospitals hire you over a new grad BSN/RN? What will you bring to the table? Good Luck!

BSN 100%

Thank you everyone :-) Is anybody familiar with Cal State San Berdadino's BSN program? I am researching the requirments, and but I am quite confused on the pre-reqs. Do we have to complete all of the supporting pre-reqs (General Bio, Intro to Biochem, Genetics, ect) before we apply too? or can they be in process?
