How long does it take to become a registered nurse

Question

RN how long?

Answer 1

4-5 years most programs take 5 but my mom did it in four but she said it sucked because it was so much extra work in those four years!!!

Answer 2

I am in nursing school now and it will take me 2 years to earn an Associate Degree in Applied Science. If you want a Bachleors Degree it will take 4-5 years depending on how many credits you take a semester. I recommend the 2 year program b/c you really dont make that much less than the 4 year degree nurses. The 2 year program was created b/c there was a shortage and people didnt want to go to school for 4-5 years. Hopes this helps.
