Hi - Does anyone have any advice if I am considering 2 different options - 1) Colorado Mountain College's ADN program in Glenwood Springs (I live near here), try to obtain local job and get this school's BSN from their ADN to BSN program, eventually get a MSN somehow. - Main advantage would be that it's here near where I live. Disadvantages seem to be it's probably not as good of a program as elsewhere, might take longer and cost more overall to eventually get MSN, might have to move anyways to get an MSN?? But I've also read that the programs in Denver can be competitive and that the job market basically sucks there. Does anyone know how it is on the Western Slope? 2) Try to apply to an accelerated BSN or regular BSN program in the Denver area, try to get MSN right away also. - Better programs, obtain more advanced degrees faster??? FYI I am in my 30s, have a previous unrelated bachelor's degree, and this would be a mid-life career change basically.
