Attending COTC college in Newark, and living in Columbus...

Anyone living in Columbus and attending COTC in Newark? I'm wondering if it's worth the drive...I'm thinking YES because there's no wait list for the RN program. But im wondering what everyone else's thoughts were on this..? It's a 40 mile drive one way.

Also, On a unrelated note, how realistic is it to go to nursing school with a part time job and a small child (1 year old) ..? I'm definitely motivated to do this but im getting a little nervous that i'm gonna be overwhelmed..........?
