Hello I wanted to know if it is possible to work and attend nursing school.

Specializes in NICU, ICU, PICU, Academia.

Yes it is. It's hard, but it is possible.

My school doesn't recommend it, but a lot of people work part time. Its hard, but doable. Must manage your time.

Specializes in NICU.

Depends on the work. I worked two 12 hr night shifts/week (Fri/Sat) while going through an ABSN program. I had a lot of free time during work that allowed me to study and do homework.

Specializes in SRNA.

Yes. Lots of my fellow classmates work part-time while studying in a 12 months ABSN program. I for one chose not to. "Saturdays are for the boys" :p

Specializes in Psychiatry.

Only if you have to. This will mean some serious time management skills, and some amazing study habits. You also need to beware of burnout. Take adequate breaks.
