MA/ADN Bridgeprogram

Greetings,

I have a question. Im currently going to start classes in a MA to RN bridge program. This means after I complete the MA program, Im automatically in the RN program.

This is at a private school called NorthWestern College. I have a bachelors degree with student loan debt of 32,000. By the time I finish both programs, I will have 78,000 in debt. Do you think this is worth it?

Another option was that I was looking into cheap LPN programs. or MNE programs but they are HIGHLY competitive.

I was in nursing school 2 years ago and failed out due to failed clinicals. :( I decided to step away from the nursing program to complete another program in healthcare. HOwever, I still desire to do nursing but wanting to do it at a slower pace. Would going to Northwestern COllege be the right option for me?

Thanks!

    NOT WORTH IT!!!! STOP RUN . . .

    This is a scam surrounded by a strong sales pitch. MA trining is a vocational/clock hour program. This means that they don't have any transferable credits. The idea of a "bridge" to RN is pretty ludicrous since there is nothing that you can transfer. Maybe they will let you test out of something?

    Skip the MA - just go to a CC-based LPN program. This actually WILL enable you to move into a bridge program afterward. And you total cost will most likely be
