I have a BA in Psychology and have always wanted to be a nurse.  Now I'm getting the idea that if I want to become a nurse, specifically a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, that I would have to start all over as a undergraduate student--I don't have any more financial aid.  Maybe it would be easier to become a Psychiatrist?  I have also considered becoming a PA but can't find an online college for that.  ( I have two small children and am trying to stick to as much on-line as I can, I do live in Milwaukee and there are a lot of teaching colleges so it wouldn't be that hard to get to some classes.  I just need help!
