So Confused. Please Help!?!


Question: So Confused. Please Help!?
I am so confused about this whole nursing school process. I have a bachelor’s degree in a non-science related field. I am being told by schools that have accelerated bsn programs that I have to take the prerequisites before applying to their programs. If you factor in all those classes combined with my full time employment, it will be another year before I can apply to these accelerated programs and God only knows if I will make it into them considering most accelerated BSN programs have long waiting list. I know someone who is on a 3 year waiting list! What are my other options? Should I return to school for an associate’s in nursing? How much mobility is there for a nurse who only has an associates? Money and time is a big issue for me so once I finish a nursing program-whether an associate’s or a B.S., I want that to be it. I don’t want to have to go back to school in order to move up the career ladder (and yes moving up the career ladder is very important to me).

FYI: I was accepted into one accelerated nursing program but being that it is approximately $20,000 a semester and it is 6 semester long, I don’t know if I want to go there but is that really my best option? Keep in mind that I went to a really expensive college that has left me in debt. I don’t want to incur anymore debt than I already have.
