I already have BS in a field other than nursing and I am going to be applying to nursing programs this winter so I can hopefully start in Fall 2009. I am going to apply to a ADN program, a BSN program, and a MSN program (for students who have a bachelor degrees in other fields). What I am wondering is if I would basically have the same status if I end up with my BS in another field + an ADN as someone who just has a BSN when applying for jobs. I really like the school I am doing my prereq's at (which would be the same school as the ADN program) and the cost of the ADN program is a lot less. Thanks for your thoughts.
