Working while in School??


Just wondering if anyone is going to or is working while in an accelerated BSN program. If so, how many hrs can you handle and what kind of jobs?

Just trying to plan so i know what to expect. Thanks!

Default Re: Working while in School??
I read on all the accelerated programs' websites that working while enrolled is not recommended. If you look at the credit load, it is over 19 every semester (all upper division courses too). I would say that working during one of these programs is a recipe for disaster. And that's if you could even find a job that would fit into the schedule. Good luck with whatever you decide to do!
