AIAM Registered Nursing Program Tuition
The job security that comes with a nursing career is nearly unparalleled in any other profession. No matter where, when, or how you practice, there will always be patients in need of quality, holistic care. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics has projected that demand for RNs will increase by 6% between 2021 and 2031. The average pay is $77,600 per year. There is work available whether part- or full-time, day or night, working with every type of patient imaginable.
The opportunity to earn an excellent wage in a relatively short amount of time is another attractive benefit of a career in registered nursing. Being a medical professional also comes with potential for tuition reimbursement and other handsome benefits.
AIAM’s holistic teaching approach helps nursing students not only build their skills but also their ability to connect and interact with patients. Our Registered Nursing Program emphasizes small classroom sizes, one-on-one time with professors, and a focus on holistic treatment and psychomotor skills of patients.
The salary and need for a certain job field is not quite as important if there aren’t benefits, rewards, and enjoyment in the job. When it comes to nursing there are plenty of reasons why this is a career that you will not only enjoy but incredibly rewarding as well.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics: American Bureau of Labor Statistics: Employment of registered nurses is projected to grow 15 percent from 2016 to 2026, much faster than the average for all occupations. Growth will occur for a number of reasons, including an increased emphasis on preventive care; growing rates of chronic conditions, such as diabetes and obesity; and demand for healthcare services from the baby-boom population, as they live longer and more active lives.
According to Indeed: The average salary for a Registered Nurse is $32.72 per hour in the United States, with top professionals earning over $64 an hour. Salary estimates are based on 66,831 salaries submitted anonymously to Indeed by Registered Nurse employees, users, and collected from past and present job advertisements on Indeed in the past 36 months.

Becoming a registered nurse requires time and effort, just like any other job. Here are the necessary steps to become an RN. Earn a degree: A four-year BSN degree provides extensive education and training in clinical nursing, leadership, and interpersonal communication. The fastest route to becoming an RN is to complete a two-year ADN degree, which covers the fundamentals of nursing. Pass the NCLEX exam: Students can apply for licensure six weeks before graduation and sign up for the NCLEX-RN exam. Participants in this computerized exam must answer at least 75 of the questions, and they have a maximum of six hours to complete it. Receive state license: You cannot practice nursing without the proper certifications and licenses. Evidence showing the candidate meets the state’s NPA qualifications must be considered by the board of nursing in the candidate’s chosen state of practice. Additionally, if you wish to work in multiple states, you must obtain a license from each state unless they recognize the licenses of other jurisdictions. Continue your education and training: Nurses who work on the front lines of healthcare must be up-to-date and well-informed to be effective in their work as their responsibilities change.
Students who have successfully completed a practical nursing program can apply to AIAM’s PN-to-RN bridge program, which allows them to earn their Associate of Applied Science (AAS) degree in just 15 months, setting them on a course for a long lasting and rewarding healthcare career.
Unfortunately, there is no one answer to this question. How long it takes to become a registered nurse greatly depends on the degree you choose to pursue. In order to enroll in a registered nursing program at AIAM, you must be a licensed practical nurse or a graduate of a practical nursing program with a passing score on the Health Education Systems, Inc. (HESI) entry exam. Our practical nursing program can be completed in only 9 months. After that, you’ll be able to enroll in our 15-month RN program and, finally, obtain licensure. So, becoming an RN can take anywhere from two to three or four years, depending on the degree you pursue.
Registered nurses (RNs) can work in various settings, like hospitals, nursing homes, clinics, schools, research facilities, and home health care. Within these settings, RNs may have multiple roles and responsibilities. Some of the jobs available for RNs include: Acute care nurses, Medical-surgical nurses, Pediatrics nurses, Geriatric nurses, Oncology nurses, Obstetrics and gynecology nurses, Home health nurses, Telehealth nurses, Public health nurses, etc.
A practical nurse (PN) and a registered nurse (RN) are both healthcare professionals, but there are some key differences between the two—they have different levels of education, training, and responsibilities. A PN typically has a shorter education and training than an RN. A practical nurse is educated and trained to perform routine, standardized tasks under the supervision of an RN or a physician. They may care for patients in hospitals, long-term care facilities, or homes, and their responsibilities include administering medication, monitoring vital signs, and providing basic bedside care. A registered nurse, on the other hand, has a higher education and training level. An RN typically has a college degree in nursing and must pass a national licensure examination to practice. RNs have a more advanced understanding of nursing theory and the nursing process and are responsible for more complex patient care tasks. They may also have supervisory responsibilities over practical nurses and other healthcare workers. RNs may practice in a wide range of healthcare settings, including hospitals, clinics, schools, and patient homes. To sum up, PNs are more focused on hands-on care and implement care plans set up by RNs and physicians, while RNs have a more advanced understanding of nursing theory, are responsible for more complex patient care tasks, and have a supervisory role over LPNs and other healthcare staff.
