Hi, just wanna know what you guys think with regards to my problem... please help me.
I am a second year college right now taking up BSN here in the Philippines. I went to California last year, stayed there for a couple of months and went back here to continue studying nursing. I should be in my third year of college right now if i didn't went to CA. I am just a permanent resident in CA and I have a re-entry permit so that I can stay outside USA for less than two years. My permit will expire on November next year so it means that i need to stop going to school again so that i can apply for a new permit in USA for me to be able again to continue college here in the Philippines.
I want to go back to CA this coming January to study there and stay with my mom. The problem is that i don't know if I can apply to college for BSN or ADN there. I heard that college in USA is very difficult, very expensive and it is really hard to enter colleges and universities. Are these things true?
Anyway, my mom said that it would be better if i have an American Diploma when applying for a job since i will be working there not here in PH.
I have two things in my mind but i don't know which one should i do.
1. Go back to CA and study there for BSN/ADN, hopefully i can get BSN.
2. Go back to CA, get a new permit then go back here to study even if it will take me 6 years to graduate because i started studying since 2009. I should graduate on 2013 but i went to CA so it moved to 2014 and next year i needed to go back there again so it will be on 2015 :C
I hope you guys can help me in making a good decision. I need your help because i don't know what to do and its bothering me for a few weeks now...
Thank you and God Bless...

I think you should take your Mothers's advice if you wish to work in the USA.
