Can I be done in under 2 years?

[Jenrose15]

Hello peeps, I am looking to get into a 2 year program at a local community college. I have finish with all of the general education requirements, and I will only have to take A/P II when in nursing school. Since, I am already done with most of things require, is it possible for me to be able to get my RN in under 2 years?

If the programs you are looking to enter are two year programs, then typically no you cannot finish them in an accelerated fashion. The content provided in nursing courses (and clinicals) builds upon the previous coursework. Typically you need to pass the first semester to go on to the second, etc. Some courses are only offered during certain terms due to the sequential order that the school's administration wishes you to take the courses.

In addition, most schools recommend that you finish all of your core sciences prior to entering the nursing courses, so you may have your hands full with the regular curriculum as well as needing to complete A&P 2.

The best place to receive the most correct answer to your question is the admissions/advising office of the program(s) you seek to enter.

Probably not. In general, the nursing content is spread out across the length of the program and can't be taken faster. Having GE credits done just means you don't have to take as many classes each semester.
