I would like to keep my full time job i have right now and also attend college. i am 20 years old, and i want to become a registered nurse. i know it usually takes 4 years to get your master´s degree, but i was wondering if anyone knows of a great college i can go to to get my RN degree. now i know i am picky..lol..since i work 55 hours a week i cant possibly also actually “attend” a college, so i would like to do me college online, now since its nursing..medical..i am not sure if thats possible since i will prolly need hands on training. but i have been trying to find a college and the one´s near where i live suck. they dont offer anythign i am looking for. anyone with any help i would really apreciate it a lot! thanks guys.
honestly there is no way you can get a nursing degree online. Part of the class time involves alot of hands on, that includes going somewhere like a hospital or nursing home to learn. As to getting a masters in 2 years, very unlikely if not impossible. In 4 years you don’t get a masters, you get a bachelors. There is a 2 year degree for RNs (associates) community colleges usually offer those. Now if you really want to become a nurse and yet have to work you can always go part time. Alot of my friends have done that. Or you can start by going to LPN school also offered full time and part time
