Best Answer

Most Registered Nurses these days are graduates of a Bachelor's Degree in Nursing program, but it used to be that nurses generally got a 2-year nursing school that was the equivalent of an Associates Degree.

There are three options to become a registered nurse as follows.

  • diploma program (typically three years, not recommended for individuals who do not have an already existing degree)
  • associate degree (two years as a full-time student once the student starts the professional phase of the program)
  • bachelor's degree (BSN) (four years as a full-time student)

Nurse practitioners have a master's or doctorate degree. The doctorate is the highest level of educational attainment.
