Need some suggestions here !!

Hi I am a foreign nurse I passed my nclex on dec 11 but till now I didn't get any job and now I am 5 months pregnant 😀. I didn't want to stay like this at home that's why I want to enroll in community college for BSN degree. Thinking that after enrolling and passing my first semester some hospital may accept me as RN . But I don't know how hard is to study here with 5 month pregnant and to continue BSN 😳. I have no idea will hospital accept me as an RN if I enroll in BSN program or I need to passout BSN first . Need some help and suggestions !! Feeling confused 😏

I may not be understanding, however as far as I know, you cannot obtain a BSN through a community college. However, there are many online/hybrid programs that offer say, a class a week at a community college acting as a "satellite" campus for the university. I personally, don't feel as though I could work full time and go to school to obtain a BSN with an infant :). That would be a plate and half. Have you had any interviews? Hospitals hire plenty of associate degree nurses. You shouldn't HAVE to have a BSN unless the position or hospital requires it as would a Magnet status hospital.

I got a call from hospital that they wanted accredited degree from United States even I have RN license. That makes me think to enroll in BSN program. I am very unaware educational style of states that do I have to attend class everyday? Do I have practical classes at hospital ? All these are making me nervous.

Like I said, many MANY universities offer BSN programs that are completely online. However, I hope they're not saying they won't accept your degree at all (your ADN degree).
