    I have moved your post to the pre-nursing forum to ensure maximum responses.

    You are going to have to narrow your search down by area. There are hundreds of programs, no one can tell you which is cheapest out of all the programs in the United States. Sounds like it's time for you to do some hard searching. Good luck!

    As an international student you will not qualify for financial aid, and may have limited work options available to you while in school depending on your residency/visa status while in the U.S.

    The ADN is typically the most affordable option for most students. However you will need to have funds available for living expenses which can vary widely based on which city you chose to live in.

    Also are you planning to return to your home country to practice nursing? Or are you trying to get a job in the U.S. after you graduate? Make sure the ADN (or whichever degree you choose) transfers back to your home country if that is your plan. Nursing education around the world varies greatly and not getting your education and license in the country in which you plan to practice can cause complications. Also, if you plan to stay and work make sure you know the requirements for gaining either residency status or a work visa, my understanding is that this process can take quite a bit of time and money and it would be wise to plan ahead.
