RN to msn

Published

I have the goal for taking my RN to MSN

Before I turn 50. I am now 43.

I look forward to hearing any feedback.

Im not gonna hold myself back I think that all nurses should take their careers to the limit.

And push themselves to do more. Get more education more skills.

Specializes in Geriatrics.

I am also 43 with the goal of MSN by 50. Small world. I am nervous, as I only have an ADN at present, but I feel it is doable. Best of luck to you.

im doing capella's rn to msn program. i was so scared to do it as im not a strong writer or discussion poster. but its actually a good program with alot of help and resources. It will take me about a year and a half total to finish it

Hello. Do you take 2 or 3 classes at a time? Do you feel overwhelmed? I was looking for info in regards to the MSN program there. Any info on clinicals? Thanks in advance.

I'm taking 3 a term and honestly I don't feel overwhelmed at all. I just read ahead a week and post my discussions a day early and that made a big difference. Oh I also tried to start writing all my papers a few weeks early so I could have a lot of free time.

Specializes in ER.

If cost is a concern, it may be cheaper to go RN to BSN and then RN to MSN. I am not in the same boat as you but I found I saved about five to ten thousand by completing my BSN online (including cost of BSN).

I am completing mine at Walden. A lot of reading and writing but professors are helpful and there are resources such as the writing center, where u can have your papers reviewed. There's also a resource called grammerly that checks for grammatical errors provided 2 u. I take 1 class at a time but you have the option to take 2 classes as well.
