Can a 24 year old RN with an AS degree become a doctor of nursing and move to India by the age of thirty-five?
That pretty much is my goal in life, I want to get a doctorate in nursing and then settle down in India and help the poor, but I want to start while I'm still young although I am trying to be realistic so I settled on thirty-five. Is this a realistic goal? If not how can I realize this goal? If this is a realistic goal, how should I go about achieving this goal?

Yes. If you enrolled in a BSN completion program, that could be done in 18-24 months. There are BSN to DNP programs that are 3-4 years in length, otherwise the traditional route goes you would earn your MSN (2-3 years) then the doctorate (another 2-3 years on top of everything else). So at the most, you're looking at 8 years. 10 years if you took your time. The harder part might be the logistics of getting to India and what you'd do once you got there. Finding an organization to work for or having money of your own saved up to go independently, etc. But it certainly could be done.

Do you mean you want to become a nurse practitioner? No you cant with an AS degree. You need to get a BS degree to then move on to hire degrees.
