RN to MSN

[TheGorgeousNurse]

Hello,

I am currently a pre-nursing student at GPC. I am trying to decide if I want to continue at GPC to earn a ASN and then do the bridge RN to MSN program or If I want to go into an BSN program. I will be eligible to apply to a nursing program in the spring to begin in the fall of 2011. I dont GPC to be my only option so i am going to apply to Clayton State and Georgia State etc.

I have been really interested into the CRNA programs and I know you need a bachelors to apply but also have my on NP programs. I know I go go into an NP program with the RN to MSN program.

Any input and insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks:uhoh3:

Both CRNA and NP are great careers to have. But, I suggest that before doing either program you get some experience as a floor nurse. Experience is the best teacher. :) It will let you know if nursing really is what you want and will help you to decide which specialty you want to work in. If you rush and get your CRNA or NP and don't like the area you are in, you are pretty much "stuck," short of going back to school again. Working as a nurse will also help you to develop your diagnostic skills as well as your confidence.
