I recently received my acceptance letter to CCSF's RN program. Anybody have any input on this program?
Prior to recieving my letter... (because I didn't expect to get in) I applied to an out of state BSN program and have an interview SOON (the same time i need to notify CCSF if i'll be attending or not.) (i heard the interview is nothing to sweat about if they've invited you for one.) This program is 1.5 years and the tuition is $45,000 plus living expenses.
My question is..where would you go? Cheap and close to home but then another year + for a BSN VS. directly to BSN but expensive?
My main reason for wanting to take the leap directly into the BSN program is because I've heard hospitals in CA will soon only hire BSN rns. Anybody hear anything like this before? If I get my ADN (and I already have an AA ) and can't get a job because I don't have my BSN- I'd be sooooooooo disappointed. Ultimately, a BSN is what I want and I'm pressed for time. (fam needs to retire.) but i've heard so many horror stories from people taking large loans and saying it's not worth it.
