There are some NP programs that will take people with ADNs but without a BSN. Most of them include in the MSN program the BSN-completion program content, and the program ends up being a little longer than a standard MSN. And, of course, going that route would seriously limit your choice of programs. But it is an option.
Best wishes for your journey!

I am currently in an ADN program but I also have a bachelors degree in psychology. I was wondering if after i become an RN i can apply to a FNP masters program. I've heard RNs need at least have 2 years experience working as an RN before. However, what i would like to know is if it's possible to get be a nurse practitioner with an ADN and a bachelors in a field other than nursing OR if I need to get my BSN before becoming a nurse practitioner. Hope I made sense... thank in advance for any feedback :) I'm in Fresno, California. Not sure if this varies by location or not
