Question for Nursing Managers in Texas

I posted on the general forum with very little response before I found this section. I'm not entirely sure it's appropriate to ask this here and I do apologize if I'm out of line.

I'm at a point in my schooling where I need to decide which RN-BSN program I'm going to apply for once I finish my Associates program and pass the NCLEX. I'm currently looking at the programs offered at Texas Women's Univerisity, Tarleton and UT Arlington.

As Nursing Managers in Texas, do any of these BSN programs have more resume power for you? Or is there another program, online or otherwise, that you feel stands out from the crowd? One response I received on the general forum said that they tend to "roll out the red carpet" for TWU grads, but I would love to get a few more opinions.

I do not yet have any clinical experience, but I do have management experience in my previous career field. I'm in my early 30's and I'm switching careers, so if I'm going to put in the time and money to get my BSN, I want it to be worth as much as possible once I'm ready to start job hunting.

Thank you all in advance for any advice or input you can give.

~Cheers

Management in nursing is NOTHING like management elsewhere... vague business familiarity is useful, but it is not the same environment... I would say be prepared to be expected to keep everyone (above and below you) happy... not really a realistic goal.
