    bsn question

    I know these programs tell you not to work while in school but has anyone been able to work and do the program, if so how many hours did you work per week?

    The last two semesters were full time at school, and I still worked 32-40 hours per week. School was during the morning, and I worked
    3-11's. My choice, though; may not work for everyone.

    Re: bsn question

    While in my ADN program I worked 32hrs/week as an CST. The OR I worked more-less gave the schedule I needed to work around my ADN program all the way to graduation. The OR was staffed 24/7. In my RN-BSN online program, which required some course work away from the PC, I worked 40hrs/week as an RN in the OR.

    The key is to find a work schedule that will accomodate your school schedule... including time to study. It can be done.

    Good luck!
