The many options of nursing school

Published

im from AZ and just finished up my bachelors in exercise science. Now i want to go to nursing school, just i am unsure what route to choose. Do i go to a community college and get my degree there or do i go get another bachelor degree, but i nursing now. Eventually my plan are to become nurse practitioner. Or since i have a bacholors in exercise science, can i just jump into a masters program in nursing, but from what i have been reading i think i have to have a bacholors in nursing first, right?

Also is it important to go to an accredited nursing school, or is that not so much important? Depending on which school i go to will i have a different starting salary or does it just depend on what the geographic area is paying.

Now i have been contemplating the idea of PA school? is it just as much money or the pay be much higher?

So right now i am weighing the cost of school, versus if accredited schools are important to attend, the time it will take me to finish schooling

i hope to hear some great advice. thanks

accredited schools are an absolute must!! who ever said they aren't are crazy..but you could do the accelerated program for people who already have a bachelors which is only like a year & half i think...

pa would be good to look into also.. i thought about that but then stuck with nursing
