I am a 21 male with 3 1/2 years in the army(will be 22 by the time i start school) Getting out of the army. I joined for school and now looking into getting my bsn. I will have to work and go to school at the same time. How difficult is the school? Is bsn a realistic goal. Are get my lpn work for 2-5 years than get my bsn be better? Any general information are personal experiences about school are the lpn - bsn programi would appreciate it!

Well as a veteran I will tell you if you budget right you will have to work very little and you may be able to not work at all. I receive post 9/11 and school is paid for and I receive $900 a month to live on. I also receive scholarships. So research your schools you are interested in and then plug away. Are you planning on going back to the military after your degree if so you can do ROTC and earn even more per month. This is not even counting fasfa. Good luck!!!!
