Masters Degree while working full time?

[CampNurse10]

Has anyone worked full time as a school nurse, Mon-Fri, while completing their Master's? I am hoping to start a new full time position (my first time as a school RN), while taking one course at a time and finishing my Master's (FNP) in about 4 years. Is this ridiculous to attempt? Has anyone else done it?

Just a background- I have 8 years RN experience in acute care and have a family. I did complete my BSN while working full time...

Thanks!

What about the clinical?? I did my MSN working FT and my workplace let me flex my hours since my clinical had some daytime mandatory meetings. I started out one course at a time. This was before on-line classes.

They said they would accomodate my schedule. I was going to do Mon-Fri full time for the first year and take online/night class, then most of the rest of the classes are days, so I would do just 4 days a week. When I hit the clinicals I will have to reduce hours even more but it will take me 3 years of 1 class at a time before I even get to the clinical portion of it.
