I just recently went and enrolled myself to do a pre-nursing program. I have prereqs to complete (of course). The program takes about 2 years, but overall with the prereqs it might take up to 3 years. After I graduate and take the test will I be able to just get a job as an RN? To me, it seems to good to be true. I know some people who are doing the transfer to RN program like myself, and I know it's going to to take them more than just 3 years. (note: I'm doing full-time). Could someone tell me if this is really how it works? Or is there a catch?

is the program a BSN or ADN? if so, yup you can be an RN. the catch? you have to get into the program, pass it, then pass the NCLEX.

good luck

Your school should be able to answer this question for you. My school has 1-2 years of prerequisites then applications to the Associates degree RN program. After that, you can get advanced placement into a University for the BSN-RN and MN-RN programs.

My school is the same. A few pre-reqs pass the pre-nln test. Get into program ect. It is also an AS; they have it mapped as if everything is passed and you get in right away as a fulltime student you could be finished in 2 years. The catch is usually rating high enough to get into the program and passing everything. Good Luck

I have a 4 yr degree already. Is it best to take pre reqs or just apply to a pre nursing program and hope to get into the Nursing progran?

What do you suggest? Where I am at, ther are 2 schools that offer pre reqs and one of them have waiting lists for their A&P courses
