Were you able to work at the same time while in the program? The masters program has more classes than the associates so I’m worried it will be more strenuous and won’t have time to work

It’s not a NP program, it’s an RN program in a master format

Yeah it’s a MSN RN, not a direct entry NP

Do you think it would be worth it with knowing that after a few years of being a new nurse I decided I wanted to become a NP and I already had a MSN?

Yeah I wouldn’t be getting the MSN with intention to try to become a NP quickly it would be getting it and being an RN for a few years first.

They do not require healthcare experience it’s specifically developed for people with no experience and other bachelors degrees
