Nursing School (BSN/MSN)

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Published

Hi! I am a high school junior who is looking forward to a career in nursing, especially a nurse practitioner career, after I graduated high school. I have a few question about becoming a nurse practitioner. I know that you need to have a BSN and then a MSN or a DNP to be a nurse practitioner. I wonder if there any program that combined the two the degrees together (combined BSN/MSN) like BS/MD program for high school student who just graduated. If you know any program in Massachusetts or elsewhere please tell me. Thank you!

Specializes in ICU.

If you're sure that you want to become a nurse practitioner, especially if you have no interest in working as an RN, I would suggest looking into PA programs with guaranteed acceptance or accelerated coursework (PAEA has a list of these programs on their website). These programs can be completed in a reasonable timeframe, but it's important to note that they are usually extremely competitive.
