Can anyone be a RN with an associate degree? thanks? |
Can anyone be a RN with an associate degree? thanks? It takes an Associates Degree in NURSING, not just any old AD. You do NOT need a 4 year degree to be an RN in the United States. In fact, the pay difference for a staff nurse at my local hospital is only $1.00 per hour more for nurses with a Bachelors degree in nursing compared to an ADN RN. Source(s): RN CNA is usually one year, LPN two years, RN 4 yrs. so the answer is no.. no, you need a bachelor degree and completion of nursing program. Sure. An RN has a AAS degree. A BSN has a BS degree. My (late) first wife was an RN. She had an Associate degree from Purdue. Increasingly, employers want BSNs, not RNs. If you're under 40, I'd suggest you go for Nurse Practitioner; the same thing is likely to happen to BSNs that happened to RNs. You should be able to find a technical or community college that offers an associate degree nursing degree (ADN). It would be more than 2 years, more like 3 when you look at the prerequisits. Good luck. My ex-wife got her ADN. |
