School and Family

[Quienes]

Hi out there,

Can anyone offer some advice on the time commitment involved in the Community College day program? It looks like two half days, two full days.

I have a BA and am a good student. I've been "re-taking" my expired nursing pre-reqs over the last couple years, while I've been home with my three kids. I usually only take a class or two at a time which has been a fun escape. My little one is only 2.

I was planning on doing an ADN program assuming it would be easier on the family than a 12 mo intesnsive BSN program such as the one at Mt. St. Mary's. I was also considering the 20 mo. masters program. My fear is I'll get in the ADN program and find it equally as time intensive and less of a degree when I'm done.

Are there any students out there with kids going to El Camino, UCLA or the Mount? I'd love to hear from you.

Thanks!
