Hey i was wondering if anyone could tell me what the best way for me to get my RN is. I am a senior Humanities major at a university; I graduate next year with my B.A.. But I really want to be a nurse; I was a nursing major until the start of my junior year.i had to sit out a semester and when i came back to school my class schedule was so messesd up that i decided to change to humanities so i could graduate on time instead of being stuck there for like a year and a half extra. So anyways to sum it all up i have completed almost all of the prerequisites for a RN. But my degree will be a B.A. Im trying to figure out what would be the best way for me to get my RN is. I would like some advice on what options would be good for me. Are there any bridge programs from B.A. to R.N., or are they only B.A. to B.S.N.? Would i do better to just go to community college to get my R.N.?
Im also asking because Im really interested in joining the navy; I know i want to.I'm just trying to decide if I am better off getting my RN first and then enlisting or just enlisting as a HM and letting the navy pay for school.If anyone can help me I would really appreciate it!

If you want to be an officer in the Navy, you need a degree.
Usually there is a service commitment for every year the Service pays for your education you have to serve Xyears in return.
You really need to talk to a recruiter and a counsellor at your uni.
