MSN without BSN?

I have a BS in Biology. I am graduating from an ADN program in May. I was wondering if anyone knows of a NP program that will not make me get a BSN before entering.

Let me move this to the NP forum where you will get more answers. Good luck.

What location?

Where are you looking to go to school? I'm in Boston - Boston College has a great program.

University of Pittsburgh "on an individual basis." There are a lot of online ones I think. The Frontier School of Midwifery and Family Nursing. Indiana State maybe.

NYU and Columbia University if you live in or are interested in living in NY. GREs are required for Columbia but not for NYU.

CSU Dominguez Hills on-line program. Available to people outside of CA as well.

Duke University has a great program as well. That is if you like....Dook.

I am looking into csudh msn pathways. Any feedback on how the process works once you have attending the pathways meeting?

Well, it worked pretty quickly for me at the time (Fall 2005). I started that spring. It took me until spring of 2009 to graduate going part time three semesters a year except for the summer of 2008. Took that one off! I graduated with the education emphasis and was well prepared for my current position as full time faculty at the ADN level. I was able to attend the meeting in person and it was very informative. Good look!

so once you attend the pathways meeting, do they have u apply to the actual program? I am a new grad with an ADN and BA in biology. My main concern is my lack of work experience bc i just graduated in Dec.

I can't speak to what they are doing now. When you apply is really up to you. Do they have a prereq about work experience? Are you licensed? I know you have to be licensed. I think it would depend on which track you are taking. Personally, I would recommend working for a while before going to more school. Your brain will be full enough with new grad stuff.
