Can you go straight to nursing school after high school?

Yes, you can go straight to nursing school after high school, but it depends on the type of nursing program. You can apply to an Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) program right after graduating high school. However, to enter a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program, some schools might prefer or require some prerequisite college coursework. It's always best to check the specific admission requirements of the nursing schools you're interested in.
