If you are unhappy, don't feel guilty about looking elsewhere or transferring. This place doesn't sound like a right fit for any nurse. Health care is a challenging field and extra obstacles, such as those you described, are not needed.

You cannot finish your LPN certification online. If anything, you may be able to finish a few pre-reqs (ie. English, Psychology, Biology, etc.)

Morphed is right. They will DEFINITELY work with someone who quit their job to further their education. That is never frowned upon.

I had 75 and passed. It was very stressful waiting for the results. I was almost sure that I had failed.

Who will slit your throat? If you're speaking of your job, leave! You have better things that await you (ie. full scholarship). Jobs come and go. Scholarships are hard to come by. Don't feel pressured. I understand that you want to "do it all", per se, but an education is a great investment for your future. Feel confident that you are choosing a win-win path.

I agree. Regardless of the 1 year difference, this offer is too good to pass up. Think of it as debt that you will NEVER have to pay back. Learn to budget. Save up. Take advantage of that scholarship. People are DYING to get into nursing school, let alone have it paid for. BTW, the BSN is the unspoken standard these days. All the best to you.

I absolutely stand in unity with the strike.

Smithd5 described it perfectly.
