Yes, there are. You can find two year programs mostly in Community Colleges. Please be aware that if you are seeking employment in NYC afterward that most hospitals are hiring at the baccalaureate level. Nursing homes are willing to hire associate nurses though pay would be much less. Most places, do however, offer tuition assistance so you could achieve a BSN while working, especially if you take online courses.
