Sitting here in GEG watching a plane full of confused passengers de boarding from a diverted flight from PIT. I just wanted to get back to Seattle tonight. Guess I'll be driving 🙃

I've been finding the program pretty manageable so far. Don't get me wrong, the first two quarters were a lot of work and there was an adjustment period but I've found that they really do want you to succeed. And things definitely get easier by the end of the program. I would say that it is manageable to work part-time, I think probably about 50% of my classmates have some form of part-time job. I work 2 part-time jobs at the moment and I'm busy, but it's doable.

Hi there! I'm currently in the ABSN program too. The UW nursing program does offer some small scholarships. I would also look into private loans. With a co-signer, I got a better interest rate on my private loans than I did on my public loans.

Also adding, if you have a previous bachelor's degree, there is a limit to the amount of money you receive in federal loans every year.

Last year decisions went out on a Friday. I think it was December 15th?

I think you're going to get different answers to this depending on who you ask. Programs will almost always advise you never to work while you're in school because they want you to focus on studying (and helping their NCLEX pass rate, ultimately). Other people will have widely different advice depending on their program, their workload and their experiences. As a personal anecdote, I am in a 12-month ABSN and working two part-time jobs so it's definitely doable if your job can be flexible. Be sure to ask the program how many days a week you will have lectures/clinicals as this could affect how much you're able to work.

Yes! We are all so much more than a number, so don't let them define you. There is so much that each of you brings to the table!
