You have to have a bachelors degree in something. I've found about 7 schools that take an ADN with a bachelors in something besides nursing.

It is a Master's program, so you need at least a four year degree in something. If only trying to go in with a BS or BA and not a BSN, you are severly limiting yourself to schools that you can even apply to.........

Programs will take an ADN----------------------as long as you have a BSN (or for some programs- other appropriate bacchalaureate degree) attached to it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry- no short cuts! :balloons:

My hospital offers a CRNA program that accepts ADNs with a bachelors in something else......a few years ago it became a requirement that all CRNA programs offer a Master's degree....With this, my hospital went in conjuntion with a local university to offer a Master's in Health Care Adminstration with your CRNA...With that being said..it would seem you would move along faster with a BSN if you consider that fact that you would have to have an ADN, 2yrs...A bachelors in whatever, 4yrs.....ICU experience, at least 1yr...then the CRNA program being 27mos...
