Bachelor of Science in Nursing = 4 years

There are some schools that have associates programs, but are much harder as they must cram everything in two years to prepare students for the NCLEX.

I'm doing a 2 year associate degree program.

However, I was originally planning on doing a 1 year advanced bachelors degree program. (Imagine a 4 year degree program completed in one year - and you'll realize why I decided against it. It's about 80+ hours of school per week for 12 months straight, and it costs about $50,000)
