Is it cheaper to get an ADN and then complete an RN to BSN program or just get a BSN?

I am thinking about getting my ADN and finding a job at a local hospital and then moving on to an RN to BSN program, if I get my ADN I can work in a hospital, gain experience and help pay for my RN to BSN program. Is that a good decision? #nursing #nurse #registered-nurses #adn

I would say yes, it would be cheaper! You can get an ADN at a community college, start working, and then use your tuition reimbursement from your employer to start an online BSN class. A 4 year program would cost way more and you lose earning potential without a license. Don't take out pricey loans because you'll likely earn less as a new nurse and you'll struggle to pay it. You can find small scholarships to pay the rest.
