How old were you when you finished nursing school?

Published

I'm just wondering, it could be for LPN or RN, how old you were when you completed nursing school. Thank you!

I was 17 when I graduated LPN school.

I was 29 when I got my nursing license. I know it's a little late but I started a family first. Then my sister in law inspired me to go to nursing school to become a nurse (she's a nurse too). Glad I did it so that I could support my son now that I'm a single mom.
