Illinois options ADN to MSN with Bachelors in another field.

Published

Looking for advice and suggestions of what to do.

I have B.S. in another field. I just passed NCLEX after earning A.D.N. at community college.

I can finish BSN at NIU and only need 7 classes since I already have B.S.

Should I get BSN? Should I look at ADN to MSN?

What and where are my options? I'm live in Plainfield, IL.

Thanks in advance.

Specializes in Nephrology, Cardiology, ER, ICU.

I think I would just go for the MSN. However, do you know what type of MSN program you want to do?

Just a word to the wise: if you even think you might want to teach nursing, make sure you have an MSN, not an MS as in IL, you MUST have an MSN to teach.

Good luck and congrats on passing!
