What are Pros and Cons

If you finish a Bachelors in Nursing:
In the Philippines (4years)
Or
In the US (LPN to RN to BSN)

I am also considering the cost, landing a good job, quality of education and other factors.

There is not much of a difference here in the US between the ASN or BSN. The only difference is the ability to go into management with a BSN.

No difference really. As you might know the programs here are impacted so it would take longer to get a degree here with the waitlists and lack of funding, unless you manage to get into a 4 year nonimpacted straightforward BSN curriculum at ucla like me. But... there aren't too many programs like that around here that aren't highly competitive.
