I think I'm going to change my degree from an AA to an AS. Right now I have to finish the pre-requisites but I'm starting to feel like its better financially and time-wise to go straight for the nursing program after I finish a few pre-reqs, sit and (God willingly) pass the NCLEX, get a job as an RN then continue my education for the BSN.

Yes, MDC offers an AA in Pre-Nursing that you can then transfer to a university to get your BSN. Meaning I'd have to wait to obtain the Bachelor's before sitting for the NCLEX. I am wondering if I should change my degree to an AS, which would allow me to sit for the NCLEX at the end of that program which would be about 2-3 years, then continue my education to a BSN, already working as an RN.

Hi everyone! I am currently enrolled in Miami Dade College to obtain an AA in Nursing. My original plan was to get my AA and transfer to a university to get my BSN. Now, I am wondering what would be a better option. I don't think you can sit for the NCLEX with an AA since the courses you take are not field specific. I'd have to wait till I get my BSN to sit for the NCLEX, right? Should I go for the AS, sit for the NCLEX then pursue a BSN after I'm already an RN...or should I go directly for the BSN? Any advice/words of wisdom are greatly appreciated. Thank you :)
