Okay my main objective is that I don't want to spend years and years at my community college. I want to branch out and finally be independent. I want to be an RN and then pursue my BSN. I'm trying to obtain an associates degree and I'm halfway done with my nurse pre-reqs. My question is after I pass the teas test and if I do get into the nursng program how long will that take till I can be eligible for the RN licensure?
Or is it possible for me to pass the Teas test in my community college and then transfer to a university to get into their nursing program and pass their licensure as an undergraduate? Can a university recognize my teas test scores from my community college?
I do take in mind that a community college would be way cheaper and possibly easier to get into the nursing program as opposed to UCF catering thousands of students with a waiting list, I just don't want to spend forever in a community college if that makes sense. Can this all be done in 3 years at the max? How long is a nursing program exactly before you're eligible for the RN license? Should I do community then pursue my BSN at a university? I'm sorry about all these questions I have a lot on mind that needs to be guided and answered,lol. Thank you And any suggestions as to whats the best route I should do would be greatly appreciated.
