I am specifically posting this in the Nursing forum to get advice from actively practicing nurses, so please don't move!
I have heard some recommend online ADN-BSN programs from those "university of phoenix" type schools. This seems like a convenient option, however are BSN degrees from those schools taken seriously? Granted, it would be building on a brick and mortar ADN.
I wouldn't want to waste time and money when the time came for a degree that wasn't worth the paper it was printed on, if you know what I mean. That being said, if it is an acceptable form of BSN, it seems like a great option for the working ADN to continue their education.
What do all of you who work in the field and/or hire nurses think?
Hi I am currently an LPN looking at the RN to BSN program in Colorado at the lone tree location. I noticed that you said you graduated from this school as an RN with a BSN and have had no issues with finding a job or being taken seriously. do you think it is the same for the LPN to BSN? could you possibly help me with some info on this type of program through UOP if you have any insight I am having a hard time finding current discussion on the LPN to BSN side of things. thank you.
