Asked by worldhelper5
i wanna know what other schools, other than community college or a 4 year school, is available for someone to become a registered nurse in New York City. any vocational schools maybe or actual nursing schools

Best Answer:
In NYC there are 14 associates degree RN programs, and 15 BSN degree RN programs. There are no hospital based diploma programs recognized in NYC at this time. The only diploma program (non community or 4 yr college) in NY state is in Elmira. Incidentally, generally an associates degree program takes approx 3 yrs to complete (for most schools) a diploma program takes 3 yrs and a BSN 4 yrs (some people take 5 or more years if not full time or take the minimum load)
