With a total of eight accredited nursing schools in Hawaii, the state presents plenty of opportunities for aspiring nurses.

With accreditation from of Hawaii’s finest schools of nursing, you can earn a salary of more than $66,094 per year. This salary paid to nurse professionals is steadily growing to make the field promising for learners who want to become experts in nursing.
