hi friends!
everyone who got waitlisted / declined for this cycle. what are you guys doing? is there another accelerated program you’re going with? are you applying to USF again? it’s my 3rd time applying so i’m definitely done with USF sadly. i’ve heard of herzings absn and msn-de roughly 50k.. also heard of keiser of course i think it’s roughly 50k too. Then rasmussen, galen, or just going to a community college and getting an asn. thanks for your insight !

Hi all. I’m genuinely trying to understand why having a direct entry masters in nursing is a bad thing and why it’s looked so down upon? Is a bsn recommended more even if the msn program works better for my schedule? I have a bachelors in science and i want to become a nurse. i was given two options, go through with a direct entry masters or do an absn. i said why not go through my masters so i could use my post grad loans since all i really wanna become is a flight nurse anyway thats the end goal. does it really matter what degree i get? do some flight companies want nurses to only have a bsn? i feel like an msn is just better for me financially and i can still sit for the nclex and become an RN with a degree. So, why is it looked down upon? and can i still become a flight nurse no issues? i know people have issues because they want to be an NP but that’s not my case. i could be an NP, but that’s would be after loads of experience. my true goal is flight. Thanks for the info!
