You would have no choice but to go to university. The UK are phasing out diplomas now, so the emphasis is on degree entry. During the three year course, it is pretty much 50% in Uni lectures and 50% placement in hospital/health-care settings working shifts with qualified nurses.





This link will provide info on different types of nursing, entry requirements, training, pay etc. http://www.nhscareers.nhs.uk/nursing.sht鈥?/a>Nursing help about training and advice?
Depending on where you are college is usually the best bet for becoming a nurse. The Canadian Nurses Association recommends a BNSc. or a BN. (bachelors degrees) but realistically only a few provinces require a degree.





Diplomas (college) usually take about 3 years whereas degrees (university) can take 4 years. If you're worried about getting in to specific programs (either degree or diploma), don't. There are lots of tutoring places out there that can help you. Take TutorJam for instance, their program helped out my sister's boyfriend finish his GED.
Nursing is a Degree-level, medical-science profession.

Good luck.
college is the only way to become an RN. you can go to the website of any college that offers an RN program and see what the schedule and curriculum is or call them and talk to an adviser.
