Start over with WGU MSN or transfer credits to a non-RA MSN?

[dmjacobsen]

I don't know, an MSN/MBA combo makes sense in a way. Depends on the idiosyncrasies of a given employer. I would add that in my opinion the idea of academic incest isn't an issue, so you got your double masters at the same school... So what?

I'd be very Leary of throwing dollars at an expensive MSN, especially if things are tight.

Of course with that said... I'm still waiting for this WGU MBA to scaffold me to the next level. I don't know if it being from a better known school would move the needle any faster.

The New Mexico option sounds intriguing.

I ended up just switching my concentration at the University of Memphis back to Executive Leadership (which is what I did last year). This is the second time I've flip-flopped, so I'm just going to stick with it this time. I agree that the MSN/MBA should be a home run if I continue with the administration track. I hope that we're both right. I've accepted a case management position with a larger hospital in my system, and plan on doing that for a year or so before attempting to move into a nursing unit manager role.
