I am looking to see if anyone can help me out on this one. I am trying to locate adn-msn programs in and around the naperville area. after i finish school my wife and i would like to move to that area. she's from springfield and i am from san diego. when i finish the program i decided to go towards (adn out here) i will be looking to further my education.
now, here for us right now is las vegas. i have in the area two bsn programs that i could've gone too but here's my thinking. most msn programs want at least a year experience. i want to get into a program asap (msn) to become a fnp. by doing the adn program i shave a year off the schooling and get out inthe workforce a year sooner.
i was originally thinking of working as an adn-prepared rn whilst i work on a bsn over a year or two. so that way when we do move i could go right into an msn program for fnp. at 38 when i finish the adn program i dont want to waste too much time. i want and need to be in the workforce to provide for my family.
another option is to just get the bsn now and forego a year of experience. take the one year of work experience i will get and apply to a fnp (or heck maybe a crna) program.
y'alls advice would be much appreciated.
