Opening a thread for the FCC RN applicants
While we all waiting for the results, I wanted to ask you: what is your plan as for how to support yourself/family while in the program? I took my prereqs (12 units or more including Summer semester) while keeping a FT job and being a single mom. But almost all the nurses I work with keep telling me that once in a program there's no chance to successfully combine it with keeping FT job. Does any of you know any student loans to apply to make it through the program? If you don't mind sharing, I'd love to hear what's your plan to keep your financial stability while in the program? Thank you!

Those are awesome questions. I plan to continue working at least part time while in the program. I know some people who did work full-time out of necessity, by working one weekday or short weekday shift and doubles on the weekends and others who worked weekend shifts only. I don't plan to take out loans while in school, but I am also interested in learning about others plans.
