2 yr nursing degree?

I'm 41 years old and considering going back to school for nursing (a TOTAL career change). Is there anyone out there who can tell me what I can expect to make, salary wise, with a 2 year nursing degree? Thanks!!

    I can't speak on the salary other than the $30-35 per hour range, but I can speak on Nursing as a second or third career. I am in my mid 30's and am in my 2nd year of nursing school working towards my RN. I will say that Community colleges are better for older and working students as the class schedules are more flexible. Also, it is best complete all of your required core course first, since you will need things like Anatomy & Physiology and Microbiology for your clinicals. Good luck.

    imagine about fee: the better to get and the more effective difficulty-loose something is, the a lot less that is valued. 2-year certificate are more effective perfect than not something, yet they seem to be a lot less complicated to get and subsequently a lot less effectual than an certainly 4-year degree. 2-year and vo-tech colleges are also in a lot of situations a lot less complicated -- more effective like extreme college. a lot less complicated = a lot less comprehend-how and ability imparted = a lot less shown and/or a lot less in a position "graduate". You get what you pay for. you also get what you artwork for. If that is swifter, a lot less complicated, more cost-efficient, then it isn't worth as a lot.
