so, is UVA (or the charlottesville area) not hiring ABNs now? I would like to know in order to make my decision between getting a bachelors or an associates. associates is preferable to me if it is still OK in this area. thank you for the advice!

Do you know what areas dont? will it be impossible to land a job with an adn?

Hey yall! I was just wondering if VA is pushing towards mostly BSN or are their some places accepting ADN? Do UVA and Martha Jefferson still accept ADNs?

I am not currently in the nursing program. I hate where I go to school. and I personally feel like I wouldn't make it through the program while being so depressed here. I am trying to become a nurse and I don't want to fail nursing school. I feel like if I have an ADN I won't ever get a job until I go for the bachelors though..

Hey yall! I am currently at a university and I hate it. I am thinking about just going for my associates. I don't mind if I have to wait 7 months to get hired, I would just like your insight into will I even BE hired with an ADN?>>

I have been researching the listing in my area.. It seems having a two year nursing degree is fine. HOWEVER, all the applications are taking about experience. Should I become a LPN first and then get my ASN? Will this ensure that once I am a RN I will be more likely to be hired?

I am deciding what to do for the rest of my life... scary stuff. Should I become a LPN first and become an RN later on so I can get my foot in the door and make it more likely for me to get a job as an RN? Or should I go for the ADN program now and hope the job market will get better for new grads and ADN grads... I almost feel I shouldnt even go for my dream of being a nurse because it feels like I will be unemployed for awhile. Even rural hospitals want BSNs now..

Hey all! :) I am a freshman at a college in virginia. I am interesting in nursing and I am going to apply to the BSN program. If I don't get in I probably will drop out and take my pre-reqs at a community college and apply to ASN programs. I am sort of learning towards the ASN direction anyways because I want to go back home. I hate the university I am at and I feel I won't be able to concentrate if I enroll in the BSN program. I feel like my time management and grasp on material will come easier if I am back home. Also, if I dont get into the BSN program this year I will have to wait another year and financially does not make sense. My plan is to get a BSN! If I were to get my ASN I would directly enroll in a bridge program, no doubt.. However, I am just wondering if this will hurt my chances of getting a job. As long as you have a BSN does it matter? or when companies say they are looking for BSNs does it mean that won't hire someone who went through a bridge program to get their BSN? any advice pleaseeeee! esp anyone from the virginia area!
