Getting my bsn

Published

I've been an LPN for 6 years and an RN for 4 years. I want to go back to school for my BSN but I'm very nervous that I won't be able to juggle school, FT work, raising my daughter and life outside of school. Any tips , strategies or suggestions to making this transition smoother?

It's all about time management! I have a full-time job, I teach online part-time, I am back in school again (DNP), my husband is a full-time med student, and we have a baby (almost 10 months old). Most online BSN programs have similar assignments - discussion posts, papers, the occasional PowerPoint or project. I think once you try out a class, you'll find it's not that bad. Are you a single mom?

How people do it, is beyond me! I can only work FT and go to school FT.

I have to admit that the 11 months without school or the part-time job were nice! :)
