Can I go right out of high school, and go to college with my major being Nursing-Preoperative/Surgical......or do I have to get my Nursing (RN) first, and then go to Nursing-Preoperative/Surgical major?....Also, can I have a double major: Nursing (RN) and Nursing-Preoperative/Surgical?

Yes you would graduate HS then enter college that offers a nursing degree.
A bit of advice. Student Nursing positions are few and very competitive. So try to make "The" best grades you can possibly make. Because those will be the students chosen first.
Get your RN degree. Hire on to a hospital and then go for your Nursing-Preoperative /Surgical training. Most likely the hospital will pay your expenses.

You need to become an RN first. Most hospitals will require you to work on a med/surg floor for a year before you can go into any specialty area.

you may desire to alter into an RN first. surgical operation is quite a unusual little international unto its very own, and you does not regularly be employed out of faculty to paintings there. you may first could "pay your dues," paintings a Med-Surg floor for a pair of years to income your commerce and varnish your skills till you're very delicate. surgical operation is many times a close-by the place THEY invite YOU to return there; you do not prepare to paintings there. once you're on Med-Surg, you will make well-known touch with participants of the surgical group, and you will enable them to appreciate you're involved in working in surgical operation. They %. and decide their nurses intently for their ability to paintings in solidarity with the group. they're going to ask your fellow nurses who they understand and believe as to what kind of nurse you're, and verify you out. in case you at the instant are not a knowledgeable group participant, they won't want you in surgical operation. you won't be able to be allowed to reason any friction, or to make stupid blunders; it could endanger the finished surgical group and their regularly complicated strategies. in the event that they such as you, they're going to ask you to return paintings in surgical operation. they're going to coach you there on the responsibilities of a Surgical Nurse, alongside with a Scrub Nurse, who's in simple terms a member of the surgical group.
