Video Title: Differences Between Associate Degree and Bachelor Degree in Nursing: What Foreign Nurses Should Know
“Today we will discuss the key differences between the Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) and the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN), which is essential for our foreign nurses who want to practice in the United States.
– Associate Degree (ADN)This program lasts 2 to 3 years and requires about 60 to 72 credits. With this degree, you can take the **NCLEX-RN** to obtain your Registered Nurse (RN) license.
Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN): This program lasts 4 years and requires 120 to 130 credits. It also qualifies for the **NCLEX-RN** exam, opening up advanced opportunities in leadership and specialization.
Remember: If you are a foreign nurse with a bachelor’s degree, you already meet the requirements to take the **NCLEX-RN**. This exam validates the knowledge necessary to provide safe and effective care in the U.S.
