Getting school paid for or partially paid for?

[aerorunner80, ADN, BSN, MSN, APRN]

Are there any programs out there, besides the military, where one can get their school paid for or partially paid for?

I am the breadwinner in my family right now so that is why I am asking. By the time I'll be ready for CRNA school, aka have my BSN, I will be too old to enter the military.

We already have a lot of student loans. My husband got his Bachelor's at UoP and that cost about $50,000 plus the loans I took out for my ADN for living expenses.

I know there are opportunities out there, I just don't know where to begin.

IMO from the CRNAs that I have talked to you are usually better off getting loans and paying for your school to become a CRNA yourself. This avoids lengthy contracts at jobs that are often going to be lower paying than what you could have made had you not committed yourself before or during school. You also need to ask yourself why this employer would be willing to offer to pay for student up front. Is there turnover so high that they have trouble attracting qualified applicants?..

The VA has a program to send people through NA school, and the USPHS did have program but I do not think they are going to be doing their program anymore.
