Entry Level Masters vs. Accelerated BSN (ABSN)

[limm0124]

Hi Everyone!

I am currently a Junior in college pursuing a non-nursing degree and I have made the decision that I want to pursue nursing. I've researched a lot about ABSN Programs (Concordia University Irvine, Cal State LA, CSU San Marcos, Samuel Meritt, etc.) and thought that was the best option but then I started looking into Entry-Level Masters Programs (USD, UCI, UCD, Azusa Pacific, etc.) and now I'm just confused. Both only require a bachelor's degree before entering the program, so is there one that's better? My end goal is to work as a neonatal nurse/NICU and I don't have much interest in the business/teaching side of nursing.

Thanks!
