Nursing School Living Expenses

Pretty much any nursing program will tell you not to work more than 20 hours per week. I am a single mother, so I can totally relate! I am going to try to work as much as I can, but realistically taking loans out (or hopefully getting scholarships) is the only way I can think of to supplement my income. I haven't heard of any online programs, definitely none in Colorado. Good luck! It's definitely worth it in the long run if you'll be happier and doing something that you love!

I know, it makes no sense to me either! I sure hope I can get some scholarships or tuition forgiveness afterwards.

I'm starting at Denver School of Nursing in January in the BSN program. I was considering CU and Regis...Regis is like 60k, so that's out! ;-) And CU is actually my first choice and while I have a lot going for me (4.0 at my main school, lots of community involvement, honor society, etc.), I got a C in both A&P 1 and 2 (I should've gotten a B, looong story) so I don't think there's any chance I can get in. Plus I'm 31, so I want to get started ASAP.

Where are you thinking of going?
