Hi All,

Does anyone know any RN-MSN programs for diploma/ADN students here in Texas? I'm trying to do some research but not coming up with much. Thanks!

Just a quick glance on Google and this is what I could find, just off hand. Hope it helps!

Have you considered rather, the RN to BSN route instead? From what I understand it is much easier and prepares you for the MSN in a similar way to getting your LVN before your RN, rather than your RN straight away.

I should have been more specific. I'm looking for ADN/diploma RN-MSN programs that are for acute care NP. Those, I can't find. There are some for FNPs and Education.

My ultimate goal is a MSN so to get a BSN is almost an extra step I don't need or want to pay for since I'm going further than that and there are some RN-MSN programs. I have to compare more but since I have a BA in a non-nursing field, a lot of the pre-reqs I would have to do for the MSN, I already have. So, I just gotta do more research.

But, thanks!

Well that's cool, regardless. I too plan on earning my MSN, if not my CRNA....I didn't know you could do RN-MSN, though? I was going to do RN-BSN-MSN, but if I don't have to, that'd be great. If you get any other info, please post it because I will need it in the future.

Good luck!

I believe Texas Woman University has a similar program.
