I need some advice. I live in the far west valley and am a mother to 3 children still at home. I was accepted into ASU's program to start Spring 10 and a slot has opened up for me at the Boswell campus through Mesa CC. I need to find a balance between my nursing school and my family. Advice on the time committment to each of these? Days/times I will be away from home? How challenging is each of these programs. The way I see it I have two options: 1.) Go to ASU and spend 2 hours a day driving, as well as class/clinical time five days a week. 2.) Go to Boswell and spend less time driving and less time in the classroom and then go back and do the RN-BSN route. ( I already have the 10 upper division classes done, as well as all of the pre-reqs so all I have is the NUR classes). With this option I would have to work and go to school, right now I just go to school. Has anyone experienced either of these and can give me some insight on these options? Any help/direction would be appreciated. Thanks!
