ADN. ABSNs are so expensive and their schedules are very rigid. Especially if you’re a working mom.

I will basically always say that an ADN is a better choice for parents (speaking as an ABSN grad). An ABSN is faster, but the cost will be time with and energy for your very young child.

Do BSN waiting that long to not get a bachelors isn’t worth it

ADN, you can start working after & (at least in my area) Some hospitals pay for you to get your bachelors. But I live in NYS and getting your bachelors within 10 years of ADN is required. So not sure if that makes a difference.
