I just wanted to say that I am currently an RN nursing student who already has a bachelors and masters degree in another field, but decided to go the ADN route because it was : 1) waaaay cheaper ( free, if you qualify for the BOG waiver- it is hard enough trying to support yourself when most RN programs are full-time study) and 2) a LOT quicker ( I had less prereqs to complete than the BSN) and also, 3) due to impaction and luck, I managed to secure entry in the lottery of the nursing program at the community college, I was placed on a waiting list for a BSN program.

Thank you for replying, many here don't believe alot people in the ADN program already have degree's.
I am wanting to move to Cali after I graduate with my BSN. I would really like to know of some well respected and highly recommended hospitals around the San Francisco area and also around the Los Angeles and Orange County areas. I don't mind a 30 minute drive to work. I'm just looking for a good hospital, good pay, and good weather, and I plan to live a little inland to save on rent. This is a great thread with so much information, so I hope to get some very informative replies. Thanks!
Yep--its a done deal. Hey--Arnold even threw some extra grant money at it, guess he agrees with me that it is a good idea. Imagine that--me and Arnold agreeing
The Governor's budget proposes a $100,000 allocation for Baccalaureate Pilot Programs pursuant to Chapter 515, Statutes of 2005 (AB1280, Maze). This augmentation funds two grants of $50,000 to facilitate collaborative partnerships between community colleges and four-year institutions for the provision of baccalaureate degrees on community college campuses.
There was never any decision for me, I am interested in advancing in the field...so BSN def.
There seem to be lots of ADN's out there with some pretty good positions. Especially when they have other useful degrees, but even without. Maybe it's different in other states?

I meant I would eventually like to be an advanced practioner. This is ONE of the main reasons a BSN is my choice for entry into the field.
