How many years do midwifes have to go to school?

Midwives typically complete a degree program that ranges from 3 to 4 years. In many countries, aspiring midwives can pursue a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) followed by a midwifery program, or they can enter an accelerated midwifery program if they already hold a nursing degree. Some midwives may also choose to pursue a Master’s degree in midwifery, which can add an additional 1 to 2 years of education. Overall, the total education time can vary based on the specific path taken.
