    Do you already have an RN license? If not, be aware that no pre-licensure nursing programs exist that are fully online. This is because all pre-licensure nursing programs have a hands-on clinical practicum component that must be completed in-person.

    Hybrid nursing programs exist in which you'd attend clinical practicum rotations in-person at various healthcare facilities and complete theory coursework online.

    You can google scholarships and apply to as many as possible. Also, any programs you may apply to might have their own.

    Look at BSN programs in your state, ideally a public school. If you already have a bachelor's, you may be able to do an entry-level master's program. Talk to the financial aid office at the school of your choice. They can help with scholarships. You can also do a Google search for websites that help with scholarship searches (I don't remember any, but I remember they existed when I was looking).

    Please be cautious about entry-level MSN programs. Many states' requirements for licensure require specific undergrad degrees... not an MSN. This would impose mobility restrictions due to licensure. Scholarships and/or financial aid is scarce for anyone who already has a degree. Most second-degree & grad students must rely on other sources (pay-as-you-go or loans).

    Since it does not appear that OP has a burning passion to practice as a nurse, I would suggest looking into PA programs before making an educational commitment.
