How much school do you have to take to be a nurse?

Answer 1

most programs require a two-year degree to become a registered nurse (RN). there are also options for additional education to become a licensed practical nurse (LPN) and other nursing related degrees. the more education, the more job options and earning potential.

Answer 2

Nurse?

LPN, This usually takes 9-12 mo depending on which state you apply in.

LVN, This is about the same as the above, some older Army nurses were grandfathered in and are now called LVN, again depends on which state.

RN- There are 2 year nurses, and 4 year nurses. Now that is four years of collage taking all the requires classes if you go full time it can be done if you are persistent in the 4 years, If you are thinking about Nursing take it from one who has been there, do the four year and decide on what area you like best and do advanced training in it. If you need income soon do the RN, 2year but don't stop, you can work, but by all means get the BS or 4year degree. Nurses NEVER get all the credit they deserve! We need good ones!!!!!!!
