I agree with this perspective. For me, it makes the most sense. I spent yrs working on prereqs and getting my AS in Sports Med (same prereqs as nursing ADN) but i got sick of waiting (and bartending) so i have chosen to pay for an lvn program bc like you said, ill atleast be making money and gaining experience while i wait. Also, the lvn program i chose fits my family schedule very nicely. Lvns in my area start around 27/hr and top put at 40+/hr. There are tons of bridge programs for lvn to bsn in my area as well. The lvn route is "longer" but when you factor in waiting times and the money im NOT making while i wait, lvn makes the most sense for me and my family. Im making a better wage while i wait and building my skills and resume 👌 i like it lol

Facts! Why play with a waiting list when you can be working.

I think if you’re straight out of high school living with your parents with hardly and or no bills, and your parents are paying for school, DEFINITELY go the BSN- it’s a no brainer! However, if you’re someone who’s changing careers and or someone who still needs to work to pay your bills then maybe LPN route is best as it allows you to graduate in a year & have a huge increase in salary and with that increased salary you can fund your PN-RN ETC. You’ll also feel like you have an advantage while in the bridge program because you have that background experience of LPN.

"My money can be replaced." Why are you planning to work so hard to make more money then?

I’m currently at a university and I work full time as a tech in the ER. My cost of living is becoming intense. I would rather take the LPN route. The program is allowing me to transfer my pre-requisite classes that I’ve already done which will shorten my length of time in school when I go for my RN bridge program. I would rather take the LPN route because while I’m finishing up some classes at the end of the day I’ll already be a nurse making a decent income that saves me from living check to check working as a tech. Plus it’s a great look on your resume for experience in the hospital and LPNs have tons of job opportunities in my state. Don’t listen to people who speak very negatively about LPNs because it’s actually a wonderful role as a way of starting your nursing career. I work with a lot of them who love what they do and bridging to RN is a breeze for them as an LPN cause they can finish their degree while have the ability to afford housing or apartments and other necessities.

You could be a great school counselor nurseb.Love you so much girl

Hi, This is an excellent cost-time breakdown. My son is in the 4th year of a BSN program. With plans to get a DNP, the traditional route was the most cost-time efficient. Our decision was also driven by the competitive process and with the traditional BSN route, he only had to compete once to get in. With scholarships, the BSN route came substantially under priced. Thanks!

Great video! Its also important to consider, can you work and earn money while in the program? In the bsn straight program no, but the other two, yes. Also can you get part of your education paid for? In the rn to bsn, most people i know get their adn at the community college, and get hired right away as an rn. Then their employer pays for the rn to bsn while they continue to work. This can also be true of lpns working and their employer pays for their rn. Now... free is the way to go! Especially when school is free AND you are being paid to work in your field at the same time! Deletes a huge chunk of change from those totals in the lpn-rn-bsn and the rn-bsn options.

Relying on your employer to pay for your education is not wise. Programs are cut all the time. Do not hold your breath on employers paying for your education, they just drag their feet. Also, you will be working 12 hour shifts and dog tired. Who has time to go back to school when you are that tired? You really won't have time. It's best to get it out of the way.

Oh yeah another thing to consider is you can challenge you LPN test while in the BSN program .

I keep going back and forth of becoming an epileptologist or a bsn. I think epileptology is 13 years according to my epileptologist. Now I’m interested in bsn.

I recently applied to the BSN program application pending❤ congratulations on everyone starting their journey and best of luck to those crossing that education bridge

The waits aren’t really that long tho. You can apply to Rn or even bsn after taking the specific courses they want. For most bsn programs now they want A&P 1-2, microbiology, college math and statistics, sociology, psychology and developmental psychology, and electives but you can APPLY to the school as soon as you get most of these courses done just as long as they’re done by the time the program is about to start. For an ADN program you don’t even need all of those to start. You can start at around 1.5 years or so and if you take a diploma Rn program it would be cheaper.

There are also a number of accelerated Rn programs for people who have degrees. Some places have long waiting list for nursing program

Whew. I did a comparison of the local schools in my area. There are alot of community programs that cover nursing schooling. So it's common to get your LPN with little to no money owed. I'm in Illinois. Springfield has an accelerated program that lasts 9 months. And the LPN to ADN bridge program at the CC is 1 year. ADN to BSN is 4. ADN Nursing program by itself is a little over 9K. I'm 2.5 hours from St Louis on the IL side.

Yay finally 😊

I live in Maryland, anyone know what state is cheaper to take an LPN program?

I'm in California both ADN and BSN are almost the same in competitiveness so might as well really try for the better grades and go BSN. I heard LVNs have a hard time bridging where I live from competitiveness so with the good pay and having to get prereqs done people get stuck at LVN. It already pays really well though so it's not bad.

It is but certain colleges give you 20 points just for a health license like CNA or LVN or emt Another 5-10 for working or volunteering with those licenses.

I live in fresno California and I really doubt the last part what you just said about an lvn bridging to RN.

The Lpn courses in my state range from 7000 to 20000 and the Rn programs with pre recall done range from 8000 to 26000 just depends on which school you choose

Here in PA Lpn is 14,000 1.5yrs evening then wk as a LPN for 1 yrs to be able to go to community for 9 mos for your RN so if you live in Philadelphia it a way shorter time and it doesn't cost that much at all free for anybody working For Penn Medicine so I dont have to pay nothing cause they give 8,500 to 9000 a yr for school and they encourage you to go back Penn medicine is the best with reimbursement and health coverage for employee here in West Philadelphia

Wow. I'm in CA in my second year of prereqs toward my ADN at my local community college and the cost is NO WHERE near $19.000; prereqs and nursing program combined.

@@Zizzyyzz I'm glad your schooling is costing you an arm and a leg. You're just the kind of person that deserves it. I already know what kind of person you are based on where your from and your willingness to make a comment and when asked to explain, you refuse.

If you do go the university route. Can you only get into the university straight out of high school? How do you go that route if you have been out of high school for a couple years. Thank you! This was a great video!

The numbers surprised me. I'm looking at a hybrid school for >$32,000 compared to another school at $38,000. Frankly stunned 😲 😯 😮

Girl I feel like this is really not worth my time. I've been a CNA for a little over 2 years now and I was thinking about doing nursing but this is ridiculous just to be unappreciated at work.

In my area, you could do your LPN in 1 year then get into an accelerated rn program which is another year. Some of the LPN credits transfer and you'll only have to do your prereqs

I feel you should calculate earned income while working as an LVN. every state is different and some bridges can be taken online.

That’s absolutely wild I live in California … Fresno to be exact (in between LA and San Francisco) I’m at the community college level for my LPN Program . There are 6 pre reqs that’s about 3 years. Most of the students I have talked to have spent that amount of time because you have no choice. you have to complete these pre reqs before you can even apply. It’s crazy you can just go straight into the program there where you are at.

Oh wow that’s a long time for LPN pre reqs, seems like they are making it unnecessarily hard. Can you at least use all of your classes towards the RN programs or will you still need to do more prereqs?

@@yourfavnurseb9699 yes I wasn’t expecting you to see this other comment haha I answered it in the other comment . Fortunately you can use the classes for the bridge ! I’m finishing chemistry right now very challenging class like you said a lot of math that takes a lot of time to work through the problems z

So I’m gonna be a senior next year in high school and I’m not sure what path to take but I have one in mind. Do you think doing pre nursing program in community college, which will take two years, and then transfer to a 4 year college/university to finish off the last 2 years is good?? And I’m confused. Let say I do this program, do I have to take prerequisites to take the pre nursing program??????

The LPN cost is insane. I got it through the military but I also work as Respiratory Therapist (BSRC) and I feel like going for RN is a lateral move. Direct entry MSN or PA school might be a better option.

I have applied to a private nursing school but costs a lot , it’s an ADN RN program or should I go through community college but I have to take all pre requisite and starts a year after , also there is a chance they may put me on a waiting list . What should I do ?

So far none of my friends have had to actually wait on a waiting list .the school does mention it though

do you have anything comparing bin and absn? currently facing a dilemma to which program to chose :/

In Maryland I can't find an LPN program without prereqs. Some people travel to the surrounding DMV areas like Washington D.C or Virginia. For my school the LPN preqs (A&P I and II, Microbiology, English 101, and Psychology 101) are almost the same as the RN preqs with the exception of (Sociology, Developmental Psych, Statistics, World lit, Speech, Chem,) maybe some others I forgot. I took them all but will do LPN first for time and financial reasons. The good thing is at my school LPN is 1 year of RN so you just complete two additional semesters. Also the Community colleges are offering a Dual enrollment programs for RN/BSN there is no bridge because you are doing both programs at the same time.

If there are prereqs for both just do RN. Where I live in California LVN has no prereqs so its how busy people switch careers into nursing. LVN at a private school no prereqs. At the community college it does.
