To become a CFNP how many years after BSN... 4 or 2??

How many years after your BSN does it take to become a Nurse Practitioner if you want to specialize in family practice or pediatrics?? I have heard 4 because you need a MSN but I've also heard 2.. help me get this straight!!

It probably depends on what general or pediatric program you choose. You need to talk to school counselors or go to university websites to answer this.
