RN dreamer here! So thankful for daca that I am able to practice nursing in Ca

Hey avon123 I'm posting this in case you didn't get my email. Unfortunately you have to reapply, and pay the fee again, to the board of nursing before you can get a new att. Best of luck on your nclex and I wish I was able to help.

10 dream .Thanks for the info. Appreciate it!

Might aswell ask here... Do you guys / girls feel an associates degree to obtain the RN license is ok? My brother's wife has a Bsn and tells me kind-off contradictory advise. She says there are associate degree registered nurses working in her hospital and everything is fine but that Bsn is a preferred option when hiring. But she also says I may get hired it would just be difficult to advance to higher positions like charge nurse. I would go for the Bsn option but I can't afford it because on top of health insurance expenses the nursing program at my local university charges an extra $150 per credit unlike any other major. My plan would be to get an associates degree as rn then finish a Bsn by working once I finish the two year degree as a nurse. So any experience on how tough it is to find a job with only a two year degree? Nursing was always my first option out of high school, I just knew it would be impossible without a social. If a two year degree in nursing is not worth it, I may just seek a bachelor's in computer science because it is much more affordable. Thanks.

Atelier some hospitals don't hire associate degree nurses, but lots of places do. Most associate degree nurses eventually go get their Bachelors . If you have the money, then go straight to the BSN, because at least you do it once and forget about it as oppose to the associate where you still have to continue to the BSN. So yes BSN is better.
