WAIT LIST for RN or no WAIT LIST BSN ?

So I I'm in LPN school. I'm in 2nd semester. I have found only 1 school will take the credits from my technical school. This school X is very expensive and 30 minutes away (private college). There is no wait list. The program is a BSN program. They may take a few of my credits.

Or School Y...which is about 15 minutes away, cheaper, but there may be a wait list, and there program is more traditional (university)..pre-reqs and all but after you do that you still have to get accepted into the actual nursing program. If you don't make it, you try again the following year... Should I finish the LPN program...should I just leave now and start over ???!!!

As you can see...I need a little help !!! lol Advice is greatly appreciated. Thanx

    I would finish the LPN program. It's sometimes easier to get in as an LPN to RN bridge than just a traditional student. The pool for bridge candidates is usually smaller...less competition, if they judge entrants separately.

    As for which school...what's the most important to you? Saving money? Or getting a BSN? Personally, I would go for the BSN just because the job opportunities for a new grad are better than just having the RN. But, you need to decide what works best for you and your own personal situation.

    Best of luck to you! :D

    Thank you very much. I guess your right. My mom said I should try and finish. The expensive school is Hiram College. Went for a visit and loved the campus environment. I've heard many good things about them. Kinda smaller and more personal. The other one is Kent State at their smaller campus. But like I said they may reject me even after I do all my pre-reqs. A girl said Kent only takes 3% of the people who takes there pre-req.s
