New here and need help/adviceRating: (votes: 0) Can anyone guide me in the right direction and tell me what I can do or is it hopeless to start a degree in nursing having to move constantly? Thank you. Hi and welcome to the sitei have moved this to the nursing careers advice forum where hopefully you will get some answers. Good luck Comment: I would pick a community college and start taking online courses. Start with the general ed courses that are required for a degree. All schools require Freshman English. Look at their listed prerequisites for their RN program and start getting these courses done. Save the science courses for last, since these usually have time limits of three, five, or seven years and you may have to do some searching for online courses that have a lab component. Since you don't know where you will be from year to year, you might as well choose the community college that is near your home town or that of your husband or close to the place where you would settle if he were to get discharged tomorrow. Or alternatively, you might look for a community college that appears to have plenty of online course offerings.Comment: I was going to say almost exactly what caliotter3 just said. All nursing programs have prerequisites (like English, Algebra, Psychology and so on) that you could go ahead and get out of the way. You didn't mention whether you have already taken any of those courses, but if not then that is definitely the best place to start. I moved to KS from Virginia 3.5 years ago and just graduated with my RN. It took me a while to figure out how to get started, too. Good luck!
