Just accepted into adn program! Should i accept or decline?

Hey guys,

I just recently found at that I have been accepted into a ADN two year program for nursing school. When I found out I was stoked because I know how hard it is to get into a program these days when its seems like everyone is applying. My dilemma is whether or not to accept the offer and start this fall. I also feel as though I should go straight for my bsn and not waste any time with doing the adn program.I am actually almost done taking my pre-reqs for the bsn program. And would do the uta academic partnership offered through my hospital.

What would you guys do? I hear a lot that it is very hard for new graduates to find jobs in clustered cities like Houston (where I am from). I can't imagine completing the adn program and not being able to find a job. Should I accept or decline. What do you think?

This is coming from a 19 year old, not to say that I am not knowledgeable. I think that there are others out there who are in the field already who can offer great advice.

    Ok so I have officially decided that I will go ahead and accept my offer into the adn program. Most of my pre-reqs are already completed so I can transition into a bsn program shorty after. I think that through completing the adn program I can decide if nursing is really for me or if I want to go into another field of healthcare such as physical therapy. At the end of the day what do I have to lose right? I am going with my gut feeling and I hope I won't regret my decision in the end. Hopefully by the time i graduate in 2013 finding a job won't be as difficult "if" the economy turns around.

    THANKS FOR EVERYONES HELP!

    I actually think a PT who has a nursing background would be fabulous. :)
