LVN now or wait for BSN program

Published

Hello:

I am currently looking to pursue a career in nursing. I already have my BA in criminal justice and I am now looking at the best route to take in starting my nursing career. I am torn between whether I should do my prerequisites (take about a year) and then start applying to accelerated BSN programs and hope I get in on the first try, or if I should go to a 1 year LVN school which I could start immediately, get a job and be able to work while I complete the BSN.

I want to take the best route, but also the route that is going to get me working the fastest.

any thoughts?

go with the bsn program. It is very difficult to get an lvn job without experience.
