Hard to say, without knowing what programs your school has available. Also, finances: does any loss of financial aid related to your part-time status outweigh the cost of the classes you'd need for a minor? I personally would not take on extra debt for a minor, but you may feel differently.
In no particular order: something psychology or social science related; a multidisciplinary program like urban studies or youth studies; neuroscience; nutrition; maybe stats if you want to get into research at some point; pharmacology or public health?
Is there any benefit to being a fulltime vs part time? If no, then staying part time would give you a lot of time to focus on the classes that you are taking so you can get a high GPA. But if you would like to minor in something, some good options would be:
Global health
Anatomy or physiology
Pharmacology
Nutrition
Psychology
Sociology
Biology
Bioethics
Not sure what you school offers, but these are some suggestions

Hi! I'm currently starting my nursing classes as a junior in Fall 2017. This is my dilemma. I applied to the program in fall 2015 but wasn't accepted because of my GPA. I applied again this year after I brought my GPA up and was accepted. However, because I completed all the prereqs and general education classes, my advisor told me once I start my nursing classes this Fall, I would be considered a part time student and recommended that I minor in something to be a full time student. Should I consider a minor or should I stay part time and find a job part time? If I decide to declare a minor, what would you all recommend? I really just don't know what to do or what's really best.
thank you all!!
