New job/starting online RN to BSN

[Jmon714]

Hello! I am set to graduate an ADN program in August, and I recently accepted a job in labor and delivery at my current workplace. I am going to start in October, after I pass the NCLEX. I was planning to jump right into the online RN to BSN program at UT Arlington in September, but I am wondering if I am trying to accomplish too many things at once. I don't want to lost momentum in school, but I don't want to spread myself too thin between work and school either. Can someone who has been through this program offer me some advice? Is it manageable while starting a new job and completing a GN internship? Should I put it off for a couple of months? I have worked full time throughout my ADN program with a three year old, so I am a great multi-tasker. :)

Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you!

I'm currently working full time, not as an RN, and getting my RN to BSN at University of Louisiana Lafayette and about to start a new position as a nurse in July and it feels a little stressful. I graduated in January and passed my Nclex in March. I don't have a child but my boyfriend and I are moving to a new state. I would say it's possible to do it but be prepared to be a little stressed.
