How far do you plan to take your ed?

I'm sure this has been asked before, but I was wondering, how far is everyone planning on taking their education?

I'm doing an ADN prog, then planning on moving so I can complete my BSN, then go onto am MSN for ANP.

With so many options out there for nurses I'm curious to see what everyone has planned.

Up to my master's, I want to teach A and P my final 10 years as a nurse.

As of right now, I will be happy with the ADN. The hospital I work in can then pay for my BSN. I am single with no children, so I would just like to get all settled down after that. Maybe later in life I will get the MSN, but I don't want to go to school forever. I want to be a nurse, doesn't matter what initials they are, as long as they are RN.

I'm seriously considering getting a masters. Once I reach that, I will see how it goes...

I am going into the BSN program Aug 25. From there I want to get my MSN. Some of the schools I have looked at, though, require that you have EXPERIENCE in the field before they will accept you in the program.

Like Jen, I plan on getting my diploma now and consider the BSN in the future.

Get my ADN, then get BSN as soon as I graduate. In the future I'll probally go back to school for NP or PA.

I plan on starting on earning my A.S. degree in nursing from my CC...I start in Sept. 2004. I hope to complete and pass the state boards. If I do, I will work part-time and transfer to a university that has a transfer agreement with my CC to earn my B.S.N. I then plan on earning my M.S.N. to become a maternal/fetal nurse practitioner. This sounds like a lot and yet seems so far away. G'd willing I will be able to accomplish all of my goals.

Working on pre-reqs, hope to enter a BSN program - junior year fall 2004. Plan on pursuing a masters at the very least... time will tell, though. :)

after completing my bsn and gaining some work experience, i definitely want to obtain my masters and hopefully a phd someday.

Applying to a combined BSN/MSN program for second-degree students as we speak. I doubt I'll get a PhD, but never say never, I guess!

After graduating from my ADN program, my plan is to immediately continue on for my BSN online--while working. Work for a year or two following the BSN and then work on my MSN.
