Commute to school.

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Prospective nursing student, debating on whether or not to move 40 minutes away.

How long is your commute to school?

It's a commute of 30 minutes to lecture, and anywhere from 25 min to 50 min to clinicals. This is all rural travel, and the weather can get dangerous quickly, which might double the commute time if I can get out of the driveway.

There have been times where I needed to be up at the buttcrack of dark to get to clinicals on time because of bad roads. I either stay over in town (if possible) or we've actually taken to getting a hotel room. I also give a ride to my friend who isn't confident on bad roads.

A lot of my classmates are looking at a 45-50 min commute, and they split into two carpools. WE have four trips each year that require further traveling and hotel stays, but they let us know in advance.

I used to live over an hour away. But with traffic it could take 2 hours most mornings. I had to drive into a major city.
