I am attending a college this fall for nursing. I was wondering how I go about becoming a nurse practioner? I'm pretty sure I need to finish nursing school, then get my masters of science in nursing? I just wanted some quick answers to help me out a little. Thanks!

Yep. You finish your RN, get your BSN (Bachelors of Nurse Science) or another Bachelors, and then get your Masters.
In some cases you can become a NP with special training that is not officially a masters, but that varies from specialty to specialty.

My sister is going through this.
She got her BSN, I'm not sure if you need this though but you get paid more with it
She then is enrolling in Nurse Practitioner's school. It's another 2-3 years, but the pay jump and responsibilities makes it worth it, at least that is what she says
She can actually stay at her work while she is going to school, she works for UCLA, and they will hire her back there
Good luck.
