Nursing career

1) If you know you want to pursue nursing now, you can apply to colleges that have a nursing program and offer a bachelors in nursing. That way, you'll be taking your general education classes along with your nursing classes and have a bachelors of science in nursing (BSN) when you graduate college.

2) OR, if you don't know for sure, or if you go to a college that doesn't offer a BSN, you can always get a bachelors in something else (preferably in the physical sciences) and, after graduating, you can go to a nursing school that has programs for people with bachelors degrees to get BSNs. This might take anywhere from 2-3 years, depending on how many classes you take per semester and how many pre-requisites you've already completed. You will be better prepared if you already had plenty of biology, anatomy, psych, etc. Look up the pre-requisites for these programs when you're still in undergrad so you can do as much as possible and it will take less time.
