Bills While in School

OK so here's a dilemma I'm sure many can relate too, so I am looking for advice or tips.

Currently I work full time as a phlebotomist, I love my job and the company provides great benefits including tuition reimbursement. However, being that I am now 25 and looking to start an LPN program, I have many bills, and my job hours wouldn't line up with the program and I would in return have to work 7 days a week just to make full time hours. I have a few credit card bills, car insurance, car payment, cell phone, etc. I live with my boyfriend and his family rent free thankfully, but I know he would not be able to take on the cost of my bills as well.

My question is how did you manage to provide for your bills and not get behind, while also not burning yourself out? This is the biggest issue I've faced when it came to school, it was never about money, it was more so of how am I going to pay my bills while in school.

    I have worked at two places now, out of my 8 years of healthcare experience that offer some type of tuition reimbursement. I would start by looking to see if any of the companies where you live offer something like that. I would start at looking at hospitals, but keep in mind that I only know this from the nursing world, and I recall that different types of positions have different benefits packages.
