Do I need a ADN to get a BSN

[RescueNinja123]

What if I have an associate in arts degree can I go straight into a BSN program with it and would getting my BSN be easier and more understandable if I had a ADN? I don't know what to do? The nursing field seems to be dieing out until maybe around 2028 but I need a job right now and don't want to end up having a hard time finding one.

You might have a hard time finding a job no matter what field you go into. I'm confused, if you think nursing is dying out and you don't want to have a hard time finding a job why are you going into it? To answer your question... You'd probably still have at least a year (if not more) of pre reqs to take before starting the BSN clinical courses. So it'd probably take at least 3 years total. Check with schools and see what their requirements are.

You can go into a bsn as long as you have the pre reqs done. But don't go into it just to get a job since you aren't guarenteed a job as a new grad.
