I have BA in Social Science but want to change my career to become a Registered nurse I currently reside in Dubai and online programs are mostly for Americans any good ideas?

You will have to search for a school that offers a registered nurse program. I can tell you that within the US, there is no such thing as an online registered nurse program. This is because of the many hours of laboratory and supervised clinical hours (many directly on hospital floors) required. While there are some general education courses that can be taken online, most of the coursework must be class contact based.
