Hello everyone, I got accepted to a program out of state where living expenses + tuition fees ect. will total closer to 90k. I live in California and know I will eventually make my way back here. Now can anyone give me an idea as to what a newly graduated nurse will make. Will I ever be able to pay off my student loans as a nurse? Does anyone have any numbers for me either a current nurse or someone you may know? I've always known I would have to get loans to pay off school but this is a private school and the cost of the program itself is considerably higher than state schools. I feel like it is nearly impossible for me to get into programs given my state's highly impacted programs where you basically need a 4.0 and nearly perfect TEAS scores to get in. In about 2 years I will have graduated with a bachelor's in nursing from the program I got accepted to but will it be worth it in terms of being able to even pay student loans? Plz help!
