Hello Zae'onna, it is great that you are looking into nursing early while still in junior high. Depending on which state you live in, using your 2-3 hours range you should have multiple options. Use whatever tool you use to search the internet, and request information on nursing programs in your state. A list of nursing programs in your state will pop up. Start by clicking on the sites that list multiple nursing programs. This will provide you with the basic information that are you seeking.

Hi Zae'onna - I commend your interest in nursing. Nurses are key to providing good healthcare and are always in demand. Another good thing about nursing is that you can continue to educate yourself and gain more medical privileges.
We don't know where you live so we cannot advise about "2-3 hours away from home," but below are links to lists of leading programs nationwide. I would encourage you to visit a few campuses, making appointments for information sessions and tours. Even if you are not that interested in that particular program, being on campus will give you an idea of what matters to you and how nursing programs are structured.
Good luck!
