They are going to start requiring that you have a masters degree to be accepted into a doctorate program for anesthesia. This is exactly where I start to get confused on which path to take. lol

I'm still accruing my ICU experience. Unfortunately, I can't even apply to school until I have the 1-2 yrs experience. I think that's why I'm so concerned about the 2025 requirement. I'd much rather do BSN-MSN then MSN-DNP (if needed later). I just t...

Are you all applying for a master's program or DNP for anesthesia? I'm curious bc I'd like to go back to school (BSN-MSN for), but it seems in 2025 the new requirement is DNP.

My concern is that in 2025 they will start to require DNP, just as most hospitals now prefer RN's to have a BSN. It takes about 4 yrs to complete BSN-MSN. Then to go from MSN- DNP it is another 4 yrs. Oddly enough, and I could be wrong here, but I'v...

Anyone concerned about starting for CRNA in 2018 and having DNP become a requirement by 2025? My understanding is the MOST places would follow the grandfathered in policy. However, it still worries me.

If this is the case, how come going from MSN-DNP is the same amount of time as going from BSN-MSN? It's frustrating because I so badly want to pursue MSN for anesthesia. I'm worried that I'll complete four yrs of school for my MSN and then be told I ...

Rasheedah, I'm also accepted for 2013. I'm finsihed all my prereqs. I just need my nursing elective (Probably going to be pharm too, how was it?). Only 4 weeks til we start the bridge class! Inbox me so I can give you my cell number. We can keep in t...

BijoutLPN I tried to message you back but your inbox is full! emtpy lol so we can talk :)

I was accepted!!!!

Well if you already have your RN it depends on your area and how badly you need the job. If you need the money now and you live in an area where hospitals won't hire you without a BSN, then get the BSN first. If you already have a job or can wait a l...

Thank you SO much everyone for the replies. I like the step by step method too. It's just simpler for me to stay grounded. I prefer to have my RN in the next year, even though hospitals are only hiring with BSN. No matter what I'll be continuing to B...

I'm debating the same thing. I have my LPN and am working as a nurse. I've been accepted to a RN program and a LPN-BSN program. It seems like the step by step way is the "safest". I'll get my RN license withing one year and then after that continue t...

Do you know if the nursing classes are on a set schedule?

I finished all my prereqs for the program and a guidance counsler at school told me if I graduate the program it's not going to give me an associates degree?

If I were to get my RN (go through the program, classes, clinicals, pass my boards)with an associates then continued to get my BSN would I have to go through another program? Or would I just take the necessary classes whether it be prereqs or nursing...

7 weeks and we LPN's find out if we got in or not! I'm going crazy. Did the assessment center say how many LPNs were getting a seat? How long will we be in the program?

anyone have any opinions? I really need some advice. Should I get my RN then continue to get my BSN OR do LPN to BSN? Besides working as a RN while continuing to get my Bachelors, are there any other benefits to doing it the first way?

Once you finish all your regular prereqs and start the nursing classes are you put into sections like an actual program or do you choose them as regular classes at your own pace? It looks like there's about 10 or so total.

I am possibly! I'm deciding between DCCC LPN-RN program and Neumann's LPN-BSN program. I've been accepted to both. I still have 10 more prereqs I need to take for Neumann before I start their actual nursing classes. I was trying to figure if the nurs...

shai2012 do you know the average of any other LPNs TEAs scores?

what was the average TEAS score this year? Any LPNS waiting for a seat willing to share?

Hey nursing students! What's the update? I have two more months to wait and I'm dying!

Hey I'm an LPN waiting to hear about my acceptance for 2013. LPNs don't find out until April 1st since we only complete the 2nd half of the program, and were not allowed to call for updates. Do you know if any people dropped/failed out? The amount of...

any more people dropped?! sorry to sound excited, but I want this badly. Also, anyone have info on the bridge class???

Is anyone managing to work full time through the program?
