Advice on path from BSN to DNP for midwifery?

Nurses New Nurse

Published

I just graduated with a BSN and I'm very interested in getting my DNP to practice midwifery. I'd love to go to Baylor, but I'm trying to figure out how to manage the expense. My strongest preference is to get my schooling out of the way in a single stretch so that I can get the higher earnings and avoid unnecessarily long studies. Unfortunately, as a new graduate, I don't have much (any) money. I've considered just taking out loans to get through the DNP studies. I've also thought about getting into the Navy or Air Force for the tuition benefits. I'm not sure if there would be any benefit to working for a while before heading to grad school. Any suggestions of ways to get this done?

Thanks for any guidance!!
