West Coast University (BSN)

[ARE-EN]

Hi everyone! First time posting on here. I have noticed that a lot of people are concerned with the accreditation of WASC (I think that's the one), which allows you to progress to an MSN degree after earning a BSN. I am also looking into WCU BSN program and remain nervous about making a decision. I have completed most of the prerequisites at a CC (about 3-4 remaining) but have reached a point where I feel the desire to move on instead of waiting around for acceptance from a Community College RN program. There is something I have been considering and would like to hear what you folks think: After completing a BSN at WCU and being fortunate enough be hired as an RN, I am considering doing a second BA/BS degree at a traditional university-part time, after which I would be eligible to apply to any MSN program. Atleast, this way I could be working (earning and gaining experience, which many MSN programs prefer) while also getting a BA/BS degree from an accredited univ. True, this route would entail waiting a few years before starting the MSN program but it is an option I am considering.

I do have a question for anyone who has done their research: After earning a BSN from WCU, do you have the option of applying for RN to BSN bridge program at a traditional university (even though you have already earned a BSN)?

Thanks for your advice and comments in advance!
