I have decided to do an ADN program at JCTC. It's a lot cheaper which helps if you are having to go back and further your education for an advanced degree.

Thank you, I am still looking into other options as well. The more money I can save the better. Unfortunately, my prerequisites still need to be taken for a&p 1 bc it is 7 years since I took the course and I need to take a&p 2 and micro. With that being said, I am looking to and additional 1-11/2 years for pre reqs depending on the program.

Thanks for the reply. Galen just received their ACEN accreditation last month so no issues there. What about online programs with few campus visits? Are you familiar with any of those?

Thank you for the advice. I figure everyone has to start somewhere.

I am enrolled to start an ADN program and already have a bs in another non nursing field. I have few science prerequisites completed so that is why I have chosen the ADN with taking those along with my nursing courses due to time sake. I am debating on a BSN but would prefer an MSN or FNP not exactly sure yet which one. What are some affordable online asn or adn to fnp or adn to msn programs. What is the time frame for going this route? Will not having a BSN hinder me from getting into programs or jobs?

Hello I am starting the RN program at Galen this summer. I already have a bachelors degree but it is not in nursing. I was wondering if I can get my RN and bypass a BSN by going directly to an MSN program? Do you know of any programs like this in Kentucky around the Louisville and Bowling Green area? Any insight would be helpful.

I am planning on going to nursing school in july. I was being nice and mentioned to my supervisor that I was thinking about going back to school but just checking into it nothing was finalized. She kept asking me about it for the next month. I told her I had to take the pax test and meet with an advisor. Well the school doesnt even have my transcripts yet and she is pressuring me to tell her boss who is our department head. I have been very clear that I would like to wait to tell her until I know more details and have things figured out a little more. I have 3 months until school would start. I told her I would tell the other boss this week but am regretting making that comment. I just feel like she is getting me to solidify a plan that has so solid ground until I get an acceptance letter in the mail. Any suggestions? I've been trying to postpone this for almost 2 months but now she hint that it needs to happen sooner rather than later say 2 months out.
