Starting new grad RN program and starting ADN-BSN program. Possible to do both???

Hi! I am starting a new grad RN program soon, but at the same time I am in an ADN-BSN bridge program at CSU East Bay. I was wondering, since I am going for my bachelors degree, would the new grad RN program work around my classes for the ADN-BSN program? (theres one or two classes a week in person, the rest is online). Since most hospitals want bachelors degree, I would think they would like me to continue. Does anyone have any experience with this or having knowledge of this matter?

If they cannot work around the one to two classes a week, then I will just drop my ADN-BSN program since the new grad RN program is hard to find in northern CA. I will continue with education later on after getting experience.

Need advice! Please and thank you! :)

    Your life as a new grad working is gonna be pretty tough. You didn't mention where you work, what unit/acuity your new grad setting is makes it hard to be helpful. Your best bet is to talk to your managers and fellow not so new grads regarding work load etc. You'll be on probation so you should be getting advice from people who understand the work load versus Internet strangers.

    Great job finding a new grad program in NorCal as an ADN nurse! Which hospital will you be starting at and which nursing program did you graduate from? I agree with zzbxdo's advice, consult with your unit mngrs and program mngrs.

    To be honest, I don't see a new grad program going out of its way to accommodate your schoolwork. However, I agree with the prior posters: talk to your managers as it may be possible...but only they can tell you that.

    Congratulations!
