  1. ASN or BSN

    WCSU1987 replied to futuremidwifee's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was waitlisted at the ADN program. Decided next step be to focus on the BSN. My work and job market hires a lot of BSN nurse's. However, if you enroll in a BSN or MSN online program most will look...

  5. Hostpitals no longer hiring for ADN?

    WCSU1987 replied to sauce'dough's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That's my game plan. An RN is an RN. Sure job market may be tough for a non BSN in my area, but there are places that would hire nurses with an Associates degree. It cost at most $8 to $10 thousand...

    WCSU1987 replied to WCSU1987's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    WCSU1987 replied to WCSU1987's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  14. Got Accepted into BOTH ADN and BSN Programs

    WCSU1987 replied to Mlee81's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    In the same boat. Spend $30 to $40K for BSN or spend $10K for an ADN. I don't have an answer. Will say a BSN makes you competitive. Like you said your an RN. You can work at a place pay your loans and...

    WCSU1987 replied to WCSU1987's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

  19. Advice on obtaining BSN?

    WCSU1987 replied to Barnesx215's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Our State did away with the LPN program. Now the only LPN programs are private and cost around $30K. If the LPN program is affordable defiantly worth a shot. If you have your Associates Degree go for...

  23. Would you retake a C+ in AP2?

    WCSU1987 replied to WCSU1987's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I feel doable getting the TEAS above an 80 this year. My biggest issue is the TEAS count 25% in regards to the application. AP1 is another 25%, the average is a B+. Then 50% is your nursing GPA, which...
