after i earned my associates degree, can i still go or transfer to a university to earn my bachelor's?

Answer 1

Sure can! Make sure the community college is accredited (most are). If you have an adviser, counselor, whatever, make sure s/he understands that your ultimate goal is not the AA but to get your bachelor's. There may be classes which will not be transferable as course credit, which you should avoid, and prerequisites which you absolutely must have before transferring into a four-year college as a junior.

It would be wise to select two or three four-year colleges that are real possibilities for you and check out their requirements for the course of study you want. Make sure you take the equivalent classes at the community college, at the most advanced level at which they're offered, to increase the likelihood that each will be accepted as transfer credit.

Answer 2

Short answer: yes.

Detailed answers:

When you consider your community college program, ask around and make certain that they don't have a problem with clinicals. Some of the programs near me have not been able to arrange enough clinical spots, and students sometimes complete requires classes but can't do the clinicals for a couple of years--which is bad all around.

Now, when you finish the associate's and earn your RN license, you'll be able to get employed immediately--it won't pay as much as if you finish the BSN degree, but close! So I wouldn't transfer to a university right away, I'd earn some money and put up an employment record.

Then, I'd see if my employer had any special arrangements with local universities for an associates--to--baccalaureate nursing program. Many do. If not, consider job-shopping to get one. Then you'll have a program that's dedicated to someone in your situation, a supportive employer, and probably tuition assistance.

Note that some universities are greedy and will not accept any transfer credit from community colleges. In all cases, make certain they'll give you good transfer consideration before you enroll. If not, find another college--there's no excuse for non-competitiveness!

Answer 3

Instead of asking the question on the internet, why not ask your class guidance counselor in school if your plan sounds reasonable and what would she suggest. ? If one gets an associates degree in community college she can earn a bachelor's degree at a university. The better you do in your grades the better your chance of transferring your grades,

Answer 4

Why don't you just go to a University now? Most colleges accept High School AP credits. If you're doing that well, why don't you just go to Harvard, or Princeton.
A community college??? How pathetic.
