I recently graduated from the UC system with a BA in Psychology. I want to be a RN and also get my MSN. I've been doing a lot of research but now I'm confused about my options. I want to work ASAP and I would prefer going the cheaper route. Long story short, I have not taken any of the pre-req science courses and I had a graduating gpa of 2.4 for my BA (so I feel the ABSN route is already out for me) Is BA>ADN>MSN the most practical option for me? How does that work exactly? I've read a lot about how this route is harmful and will put me at a disadvantage when applying for jobs. What are some other options besides BA>ABSN>MSN? Thanks for your help!! :redbeathe P.S. I currently live in California but would like to move to Illinois for my schooling, what are some schools to look into for both ADN and MSN. Should I do ADN in CA and MSN in Illinois?

Hi guys! I recently graduated UC Santa Cruz with a B.A. in Psychology. I have a gpa of 2.4 (really bad, I know). My first 2.5 years of school were rough which is why my GPA is so low. However, I want to become an RN. Is it possible considering my circumstance? Should I get an associates or do you think I can get into an accelerated nursing program? Any help, advice would be greatly appreciated! I'm not really sure what my options are or where to start. Thanks!
