What schooling do I need to get my RN license? I a sophomore in high school and am very interested in maternity nursing. Should I go to a 4-yr college? I would like to get the university experience but I've heard that if you get your BSN you won't get to work with patients anymore, just be like a director of nursing..so if you could tell where/what I should do to become a RN I would love it!! Thanks, Mollie
