  4. Associate degree new grad working in nursing home

  9. RN to MSN, skip the BSN?

    I have no idea if you'll see this because this post is old but I'm in the exact same situation and would like to know what you ended up doing. I got a BA in Sociology last year and I'll be graduating in May from an ADN program.
