Difficult to decide... RN or BSN?????

I am an international student who wants to be a nurse practitioner.

My initial plan was to apply for BSN program but today I just found out that there is a ADN program in the community college I am studying now and there is NO WAIT LIST for this fall! Plus, I have completed all the prerequisites so I can literally just get in...It is A LOT cheaper as well.

So I was thinking, what if I get my BS and go for RN to BSN program later.....

When I did some research about RN to BSN, almost 99% of them were online, and I can only apply for campus based programs..

Should I just wait one more semester and go for BSN program?

Or,

Should I go for RN, then RN to BSN/MSN program(there are few in this country)?

I really need your advice!

    If RN to BSN are online how are you planning on staying in the country as a student?

    I can't maintain my visa status if I taken an online program so it should be campus based..

    Are there many places that do campus based RN to BSN? To be honest I mainly see Online courses as many continue working whilst paying and studying.

    I am tempted to go the BSN straight away route but really depends on you and what you can afford and do
