How can I go from an RN (Registered Nurse) to a DSN (Doctrate of Science in Nursing)?

I am going to college in the fall and I will get my RN or ASN (Registered Nursing or Associates of Science in Nursing) can I go straight from that to my DSN (Doctrate of Science in Nursing)... What are the steps necessary to get my DSN and do you know of any website/program/phone number anything that can be helpful in my search... I'll look into any website/program/phone number.... THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think so. You need to have a four year undergraduate degree to go into a graduate program. So you'll need to get you BS or BA then apply to graduate school. Then you need to apply, and take the GRE exam.

Select a school and drop them a line asking who there can mentor you through the graduate process and talk with them.

you might want to learn how to spell doctorate first.
