Can i become a doctor if i finish a bachelors degree in nursing?

i got accepted to hunter college for the nursing program. i want to either become a nurse practitioner or a doctor. hunter has masters programs for nurse practitioners after the bachelors degree but nothing for doctors. is it possible to become a doctor after a bachelors degree in nursing in another school?

I know someone who went to Stony Brook (Long Island). She got a liberal arts degree (just a general BA degree). She applied to their medical program, got in, went to Mt. Sinai for her residency, now is an MD. When she was in high school, she was a very high achiever. She also played in band, took her instrument to competition, and was so phenomenal, her band director was convinced that she'd enter music as a profession.

I'm sure the courses you're taking will help. Also, you will see the medical profession through the eyes of a nurse and a doctor. I'm sure that will give you a unique perspective on the medical profession and will help you become a great doctor.
Good luck!

You can go to medical school with any bachelor's degree. Provided that your nursing degree is a bachelor's, you qualify to apply. Since your school does not have an MD program, you would have to go to another school after graduating w/your bachelor's.

Medical schools are extremely competitive. I believe they would rather see someone with a pre-med major than a nursing major. You can ask an advisor about it, though. You may want to consider a biochemistry or chemistry major instead of nursing. Pre-med programs are usually set up to give you a good background in chemistry, biology, physics, etc. rather than the actual clinical procedures. You'll start dealing with that kind of stuff when you get to medical school and you internship.

of course it is----but it is also advisable to look at the pre requisits for whatever med schools you want to apply to and make sure you are taking the right courses along with your nsg classes.

You can definitely transfer to another college. You should speak with your college adviser. Make sure your study plan will line you up for med school, and after 4+ years, when you've earned your bachelor's, you can go on to med school.

Doctors NEED to go to medical school. Your college might offer sufficient 4-year program to qualify you, so you can transfer after filling some requirements at Hunter. Transferring means you go to a different college, but they give you credit for the courses you've already taken at the old college.
