Welcome to Allnurses.com
Not sure which part of the state that you live in, but I would suggest that you contact some of the community colleges in your area to see what types of programs that they offer. This would be your best start. Each program has different requirements as to the pre-reqs, etc.

Good luck to you.
If you let us know which area of the state that you are in, maybe some one will have more answers for you.

Question Hi again
I am located in South NJ like Cherry Hill area I was considering Burlington County College or Camden County College but I also know there are other nursing programs in the area that I haven't come accross . Also Do you think I should dive right in for the RN or get the LPN first I would love any advice. my end goal is to be a CNM so I am thinking RN might be the better choice I would love not to spend the next 10 years in school but I have to do it all part time ...
