Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me out. I recently received my Associate's in Sciences and want to pursue nursing. The only thing is I'm moving to Pennsylvania and I work full time and I want to go into a hybrid program for to get my RN. Does anyone have a good suggestion as to where I can find a school that will accept my degree?

Your non-nursing degree is irrelevant in terms of acceptance to a nursing program. However, you may be able to transfer the credits you took to obtain that degree .. if they are required for the nursing program. You'll need to talk to the nursing school admissions counselor to see exactly what will transfer and what other classes may be required.
I don't know what you mean by 'hybrid' program. Do you mean one that is partially online? Most schools offer online courses for pre-requisites and some didactic nursing courses.
