Same stuff, different places, drive over the bridge to make money or settle.

[i doubt it. I am having a hell of a time finishing my BSN because no one wants to take those courses. QUOTE=akcarmean]Has anyone heard if IL. is going to start accepting online degrees for like RN's.? I know currently they don't accept them. But I heard that there was something up to vote to start accepting. This is why right now I am taking online courses for my ADN, BSN, and MSN, courses other than nursing so they will be accepted and transfer to the local community college so after I am finished I can recieve my RN degree. Was just wondering if anyone knew anything. Angie
