I have a bachelors degree in biology.. I want to become a nurse.. what do I do?

Check with a college advisor-you may be able to use some of those credits-they would be the best source of information for you.

Go to nursing school. You can skip some classes you already have so now you will have about 2 years I think.

You have to go to nursing school. This means applying to the nursing programs. They might be more willing to accept you because you have a Bachelors but it is still a competitive market. It is just like being a lawyer. I have a BA in Criminal Justice but I still need to go to Law School to become a lawyer. Therefore, you should find out where the best Nursing Schools/Programs are for you and apply to them. Good Luck.
