2 yr School or 4 Yr School

Published

Im a 25 yr old Male who is very interested in getting into Nursing. I was wanting to go to a community college and take the 2 yr course to become a RN, however just recently i found out that most hospitals will start to only hire RN's with a BSN.

My question is would it be a good idea for me to go to a 4 yr school and just get my BSN rather than a 2 yr school to become a RN?

The reason I wouldnt mind going to a 2 yr school is so that I can get into the work force right away after I graduate and pass the NCLEX, so I can start making money right away, then go onto a 4 yr school and get my BSN. Im just afraid by the time i graduate a 2 yr school, I wont get hired if I do not have a BSN? :confused:
