I am looking for advice on selecting a program. I graduated with a BS in Biochemistry in 2011 and would really like to go back to school for a degree in nursing and I am not sure what the best option will be. I think I have narrowed it down to returning to a 1 or 2 year accelerated program to get a second BS degree or getting an associates degree in nursing. The advantages of the associates program is that since my husband is in the military I can get a scholarship to pay for the majority of this program. Is there advantages over one or the other. I would also like to someday get a masters or doctorate, would is still be able to do with either degree.
Thanks so much for your advice!
