Technical college or state university for nursing?
-
I was in my local technical college's practical nursing program (a diploma program) but started arranging things to switch over to the local state university's RN program because I felt like that would get me the better job. However, my boyfriend suggested there are more job opportunities if I would just stick to the diploma and do the RN program after wards. Plus, the state college I applied to is very difficult and run poorly. Professors are not helpful and don't really teach. I have a two year old son, so whatever will be easier on us and will get me the best job the quickest is really what I need. I just need advice on what to do before I make any decisions.

Answer:
A higher degree usually means a better job, Where are you getting the info about the state program not helping students? More job opportunities if you get a diploma I doubt that, It makes you less qualified for more jobs.

If its just a diploma program, go to the university. Your job prospects and potential for advancement will be better if you can get at least an associate's. The best way is to get an associate's in nursing, start working as a nurse, then do an RN -> BSN (or MSN) program and work your way through it so you don't need loans. But many associate's degree programs have huge waiting lists, so its not always practical.
