  5. RN - BSN, ADN????

    D.R.A. replied to swellie24's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    As the pp mentioned, you may not need a BSN to teach. If that is the case, then it would be a huge waste of money to get a BSN. If you just need 'a Masters' shortest route seems like it would be in...

  9. RN - BSN, ADN????

    D.R.A. replied to swellie24's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My first question would be do you need an MSN to teach nursing courses or can you hold an MS in your current field and an ADN and still teach them? That may depend on where you are going to

  10. Are you getting a ADN or going straight to BSN ?

    D.R.A. replied to zrodriguez's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have choosen to do ADN and will then do BSN and MSN. For me it is a matter of time and money. For me personally it's like having the best of both worlds. Plus other than the fact that I'd like to...

    D.R.A. replied to petunia2016's topic in General Nursing

    To the OP, I am like you, I do not have the time to devote to med school right now. Being with my children while they are young is my number one personal endeavor. Since all of us students have...

    D.R.A. replied to Kyla.ann's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
