Any Mommies on here work full time AND go to school?

To make a long story short, I never finished my Bachelors when I was younger. I was planning on going back to school anyway, but I recently got a job at a university where tuition is free.

I just got accepted into the school's Nursing program- and will be registering a little bit later today. I can take as many classes as I'd like- but they want me to take 3- 2 night classes and 1 day class. At this rate, its probably going to take me at least 3 years to get my degree since I am completely switching majors (was in the School of Education the first time around).

DD is 2.5- and husband is totally on board with me going back to school- but I'm just worried about being stressed out all the time. My job at the university is very low in stress.

Any other mommies out there work full time and go to school- or am I out of my mind?

does one of those classes have clinical rotations this semester? B/c if it does- eventhough its just 1 class, it could be 3 hours of lecture and an 8 hour hospital rotation each week. Just something to think about when registering.

No clinicals yet. They way the program works is that you need to finish the Pre-Professional phase first (all the Engilsh classes, Sciences, History, etc)- so that is where I am now.
