I live In Seattle where there are maybe 4 colleges that offer a two year RN Program. There is somehting about being a CNA, taking a test , years of pre-courses, writting essays and then maybe you can apply. I am an MA with a biology degree that is 13 years old trying to get to gather all the necessary info to choose an RN program. THey all keep changing there classes and know I am loosing hope-so you have to be a CNA even to apply. Is there any person out there that has experience in this area. California has many schools and many programs should I wait and do it there. This Seattle thing seems hopeless. Thank-You Hopeless In Seattle.
