I really need some advice here. I just graduated with a B.S. in a non-nursing field, but I want desperately to work as a NICU nurse, and potentially get a masters later on. I applied to one accelerated BSN program for this fall, but was rejected. I would like to go to an ABSN program, but I also really want to get my RN so I can start working! I plan on applying next summer to two ABSN programs where I live, but I am worried with how incredibly competitive they are that I could be denied again and pushed back another year. There is a community college in my town that offers a 4 semester ADN program that I could begin in January. There is competition, but my grades and test scores make it very likely for me to get accepted. My question is: how terrible/unethical would it be for me to start an ADN program in the spring, but still continue to apply to ABSN programs that start that summer? I am willing to get an ADN and bridge to BSN, but since I already have a bachelors of science, the ABSN would be quicker for me. I don't want to be blackballed for leaving one program, but if given the choice between getting my BSN faster than the ADN I would like to do that. There is still a good chance I could be denied again from the ABSN, and would finish the ADN program. Would this make me un-hireable or hated in the local nursing community?
