- This video talks about the differences between the ADN and BSN degrees in nursing. Which nursing degree should you get in order to become a registered nurse?
An associate degree in nursing (ADN) generally takes about 2-3 years to complete. Students will be trained in both classroom and clinical settings. Upon graduation from an accredited nursing school (or university), students must sit for the NCLEX-RN exam, and then they will become licensed nurses.
A bachelor of science in nursing (BSN) degree generally takes about four years to complete. Students will still have to take the NCLEX-RN exam upon graduation, and they will then be licensed as a registered nurse.
Both nurses perform the same scope of practice. Both nurses are highly skilled. The BSN degree is the best option if you plan to go back to school to obtain a master's degree or doctorate. An ADN degree is fine if you just want to work as a nurse and get the minimal education.

Hi I have a question .. I wanna become a neonatal intensive care nurse but I'm not sure after I graduate from high school where to go from there ? Can you please help thank you !! ❤🙂
Hello. I really enjoy your videos. Can you do one on tracheostomy care and management of airway with tracheostomy? Thank you.
I got my ADN And started working as RN and it’s been two years now, and I’ve been taking my BSN classes while working so now I only have one more class before I get my bachelor’s. My college used to be a community college that only offered associate’s in nursing, but now has expanded to a state college that offered bachelor’s which is nice
Hey, I know this is a 6-month old comment, but if you get a notification and see this...
How is working as an RN + going to school? I'm 25 and really need to get going on a career, so I was thinking it'd be best to just jump in with an ADN, then get a BSN later.
Is it super stressful? Did you have to work less shifts to allow for school? Were you able to afford an apartment by yourself while doing this or did you have to room with someone?
Thanks a ton! :)
Hello, I am currently in an ADN program and finishing up soon. It’s not hard to do the completion. I plan on going to WGU online after I graduate and they require you to work to be in their program. It’s at your own pace. I say do the ADN it’s faster and cheaper and you can get to work right away
Thank you so much for this clarification🤝🙌 you explained it so well thank you
GOOD JOB BRILLIANT EXPLANATION
You're awesome. Thank you.
Hello, I have a question. How long will it take to do RN to BSN? Also, I passed my NCLEX-RN watching your videos. Thank you in advance 😊
I have a question. My goal is to get my bachelors in nursing so I can one day go to medical school and become a doctor. But the college I am going to attend in the fall does not have a nursing program. So can I just get my A.A. Degree in general studies and get all my prerequisites for a nursing program and then transfer to a bsn program(UCF direct connect) or do I have to go to a adn program and then transfer to a bsn program? Thanks!
Hello Alex :) It really depends on the schools requirements that you will be transferring to. Some schools are very picky and sometimes there are issues with transferring classes. However, some people do complete pre-reqs at other schools because it is a lot cheaper and then transfer. To get the best answer to your question, I would send an email to an advisor in the nursing program you want to attend and ask them. I hope that helps :)
Thank You for that insight
Thanks for information
Thank you for this explanation, I was looking for this answer since I a wasn't sure if to go for a comm college or for a state college $$$$$.... 😃😃
Hello, I would like to work in the labor and delivery area or in the NICU but I don't know which option is better the ADN or the BSN ? Also, i'm taking the nln this fall do you have any tips?
Hello I'm 33 looking to go to college for the 1st time I always wanted to be an RN but I wasn't a good student is nursing major hard for someone like me? I know I have to work hard what I'm asking is if I was bad at math and english is my second language will that be make it a lot harder also in Los angeles how easy or hard is it to just get a job with only ADN degree for example my sister has her bachelors as a social worker she can't get a job because all employers require a masters will I encounter such problem as an RN with ADN degree? Do employers require an ABS
How different are they in Core Classes . I heard there is lots of research and essay papers in a BSN school
.... True? or not? thank you.....
Thank you
My community college says it's going to take me 3.5/4 years to complete my adn plus a year long waiting list!!
Hello! I have a question. I recently received my associates degree in Administration of Justice from a community college and i had a change of heart and wanted to go with nursing instead. My college counselor is advising me to get my associates in nursing which would take 2 years, then transfer out to a university and complete my bachelors in nursing there in another 2 years. I'm wondering if i have to get both degrees to become a RN. I live in California and have been told that most hospitals are looking for nursing students for their bachelors degree instead of the associates. Do you think i would have to get my associates in nursing first then my bachelors in nursing? I don't see why i cant just transfer to a university with my associates in AJ then change major once I'm there. I so confused. Hope you can help me with this. Thank you!!
Hello :) You can work as a registered nurse with either an associates degree in nursing or bachelor's degree in nursing. You don't have to have both degrees. However, there is a huge push for 80% of registered nurses to hold a BSN degree by 2020. So, yes, many hospitals are pushing for BSN degrees....but that doesn't mean you can't get hired with an associates degree in nursing.
Yes, you can do what your counselor is advising, but you should look into transferring to a university with a BSN program (since you have probably already completed most of the pre-reqs when you completed your AJ degree) and complete a program there. I highly recommend you contact an advisor at a local university with a BSN program and see how long it will take you to complete a BSN program based on the classes you have already taken. You may be surprised that it may take only 2-2.5 years for you to get a BSN degree. I wish you the best and hope all goes well :)
I finished all my prereq.classes for an associate degree in nursing about 14 years ago and some nursing classes. Now I want to go back. In my case do I have to repeat them and start from zero..or only I have to repeat the nursing ones. Note that I have a master degree in educational management from a university overseas. But the rereq.nursing classes from henry ford community college. Thanks
I have a question. I'm planning to become a CRNA in the long run, but I want to move to Washington State once I get my degree. The best plan I've conceived is to go straight for my BSN, register as an RN. After gaining the needed certifications and getting the 1-2 yrs of experience, I'd apply to a CRNA school. My biggest issue is if I get my degree in Texas (where I live), will I have to be relicensed when I move or no?
Hello Jason :) No, you will just have to apply for a nursing license in Washington State and pay their fee. You won't have to retake NCLEX or anything like that.
Oh great! Thanks for relieving the worry! Keep up the great vids :)
thanks
I have a Bs in health care administration but just want my Rn so does it make sense to go for a bsn rn
my goal is to become a nurse practitioner. I want to work in the trauma or internal medicine setting. i am in community college of right now taking my prerequisites, but after this, I want to apply to the ADN nursing program in my college, it's fine if I want to still go for a master's degree? what do u say?
+Cari Baez Yes, it is great you want to go for a master's degree. After you get your ADN degree, you will have to get a BSN degree to qualify for a MSN program.
-Sarah
Thank you this really helped out a lot 😆😆😆
Pls if you want to work as an office nurse which is advisable in terms of ADN or BSN
So it is best for a BSN in order to become a geriatric nurse
If I take an AA pathway (Pre-Nursing) for two years. Do I get into the nursing program to get my BSN in two years? Or do I have to take 4years?
Was looking into the same exact career in the long run. I'm trying to decide wether I should go for my ADN and work for a year and two, and then go back to school for my BSN or if I should just go straight for the BSN and then apply for an AA program. Would love to hear what you ended up doing.
I'm a BSN student
is bsn same as bns ? I am from Nepal so we don’t have appropriate knowledge about it
Hii it's a request would you please tell me about ADN...like can i be a registered nurse by doing ADN or it's necessary to take BSN??
Hello I have a question. I was wondering now that hospitals are pushing more RN to get bachelors degrees by 2020, are they stop hiring adn nurses?
So far by what I've heard, yes. They are hiring bsn only now very difficult to get in with only an adn
Hay thanks
How long does take to move from Adn to bsn school wise
It varies depending on if you go full-time or part-time and the program you choose. Generally, it takes 2 years, but some people have completed it in 3 semesters going full-time while others have completed it in 4 to 5 semesters going part-time. I hope that helps :)
My BSN is going to take 5 semesters. Doesn't an ADN take 4?
Hlw..I am thinking to study ADN and become Rn and get my masters degree Is it possible?
Yes WGU online haves a ADN to MSN latter. That is what I am going to be doing when I graduate my program in December.
Now something I really can't find too much information of is is the ADN more accelerated than the BSN? I know that there are accelerated versions, but I'm just speaking the regular fall to spring, 2 years, so on and so forth. Your help would mean so much. Thank you.
They should be about the same without the prereqs. I'm in an ADN program now and it's 4 semesters of core nursing classes. Then it's 4 more semesters of core nursing classes for the BSN, excluding BSN prereqs. At least that's how it works at my school
Hi ma'am I'm JOSIE from Philippines.. is it possible to study ADN based on my age... I'm turning 33 this coming July 27, 2020????..
Hi I am actually not sure but I don't believe there is an age requirement as long as your older than 18. Follow your dreams :)
I know a woman who is 60 years old who is just completing her BSN. It’s never too late.
Josie I am 35 and I am enrolled in a concurrent program where I am getting my ADN and BSN at the same time. There is no age requirement.
Thank you for your video! Can you administer Botox with your ADN
