New York Nursing Schools and Programs

Researching then applying to accredited nursing schools in New York can be a time consuming task. For those just getting started in Nursing, we suggest that you focus on your near term education goals and the New York licensing requirements. The first question to ask yourself is: Do I want to begin my career in the state of New York as a Nursing Assistant, Practical Nurse, or a Registered Nurse? See our nursing education chart below for some insight into how long it takes to graduate from the most popular CNA, LPN, and RN nursing programs in New York.

How long is nursing school in New York? New York education estimates and average wages by nursing program: Nursing Assistant, Practical Nurse, Registered Nurse, and Nurse Practitioner.

New York Registered Nurse programs generally lead to an Associate Degree in Nursing or Bachelor Degree in Nursing which typically last 2 to 4 years.

Finding the best Nurse Practitioner school in New York before you become a Registered Nurse, for example, may bog down the school selection and application process. Furthermore, many four year undergraduate colleges routinely accept transfer credits for prerequisites often called pre-nursing courses.

While earning an Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN, ASN) or Bachelor Degree in Nursing (BDN, BSN) is an important milestone for nurses, many New York nursing school students gain meaningful work experience and an income upon completion of a shorter Certified Nursing Assistant or Licensed Practical Nursing program in the state of New York.

To help students search for the best nursing school in New York, we have outlined some key questions to ask. Below on this page you will find the following:

  1. How do I become a nurse in New York?
  2. Is New York a nursing compact state?
  3. How long is nursing school in New York?
  4. How much does nursing school in New York cost?
  5. Is it hard to get into a New York nursing school?
  6. List of nursing schools in New York.

How do I become a nurse in New York?

If you want to become a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) in the state of New York, you will need to complete a Practical Nurse training program. Practical Nursing programs generally last 1 to 1.5 years. Upon completion of your New York practical nursing program, you will have to pass the nationwide NCLEX-PN exam. After you pass the NCLEX-PN exam, you will apply for a Practical Nurse license from the New York Board of Nursing.

If you want to become a Registered Nurse (RN) in the state of New York, you will need to complete a Registered Nurse training program. Registered Nurse programs generally last 2 to 4 years. Upon completion of your New York registered nursing program, you will have to pass the nationwide NCLEX-RN exam. After you pass the NCLEX-RN exam, you will apply for a Registered Nurse license from the New York Board of Nursing.

Is New York a nursing compact state?

No, New York is not part of the nursing license compact. States which joined the Enhanced Nursing Licensure Compact (eNLC) allow the Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) and Registered Nurse (RN) to practice in other participating states using one multi-state nursing license. This means that a New York Licensed Practical Nurse or a New York Registered Nurse must apply for a license by endorsement when moving to another state.

How long is nursing school in New York?

The amount of time you spend in a New York nursing school will vary based upon the career path you choose. You can become a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) in as little as 6 to 12 weeks. Become a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) in 1 to 1.5 years, a New York Registered Nurse (RN) in 2 to 4 years, or stay in nursing school longer to become a Nurse Practitioner in 6 to 8 years.

Above on this page we created a tabular image which summarizes how long nursing school is in New York. That image includes the number of nurses employed in the state of New York, along with the average wages earned at each education level.

Notice that in the state of New York, far greater numbers are employed as a Registered Nurse (RN) compared to a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN). Notice also that a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) in New York earns far more in wages compared to a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA).

Use the nursing program acronyms CNA, LPN, ASN, BSN, MSN, DNP, and PhD to help identify which New York nursing schools offer the length of program you desire.

How much does nursing school in New York cost?

Tuition for a nursing school in New York will cost between $5,000 to $8,000 per year for state residents seeking a two year Associate degree, an ADN or ASN, for example. The larger public four year colleges and universities in New York cost more between $8,000 to $10,000 per year for state residents seeking their Bachelor Degree in Nursing, a BDN or BSN.

To help reduce the cost of nursing school in New York, a student can generally take their pre-nursing courses at a smaller two year college. Then, transfer those credits into the larger four year college or university of your choice. Each college has their own method of awarding transfer credits for pre-nursing coursework. You will need to plan ahead and question the receiving school before you start your first pre-nursing class.

Is it hard to get into a New York nursing school?

We list the quoted acceptance rate provided by each New York nursing school. A college acceptance rate is calculated by dividing the number of accepted students by the number of total applicants. Reviewing the list of nursing schools in New York provided below, we can see the acceptance rates range from about 50% to 100% or Open. SAT and ACT scores are displayed on each individual nursing school page.
