How can you have a degree changed? I don't believe that's possible but you will have an AA in Liberal Arts then an ADN, two different degrees.

No, you can't.

Look into the nursing school(s) you'd like to attend, and figure out what they require. A degree before nursing school isn't required - certain classes are.

You can get a liberal arts degree (AA in Liberal Arts) then transfer to nursing program you are looking at. You would graduate from that program with an AS in Nursing or BS in Nursing (whichever level of program you complete). At the end you would have two degrees, one in liberal arts and one in nursing.
