Howdy there! I'm new to your boards so I hope I did this right.. Let me just say that I think you all are a world of advice and a great group of people! I am happy I found this board and have been watching it very closely since I found it. I know the boards get a lot of people from all over the world who are thinking about entering the nursing field and want imput. I hope I'm not being too nosey here, but I was hoping some of you could help answer a qestion for me. Did any of you recieve any finacial aid or student loans while persuing your dream? How in the world did you manage to pay them off? I really want to go to school and follow my heart but the finacial strain is really making me think twice. (LVN school is ten thousand for one year.) I have a little one and my husband is military. I've talked to the financial aid dept. at the school I wish to attend and wasn't happy with just that. Can anyone offer advice on where I might be able to get some help from. Thanks!!
