I have just been offered a place for a part time college course starting in september. It is for one day a week over 2 yrs and on completion I would hopefully get a place on a nursing diploma coourse lasting 3 years full time.
I really want to do this course as childrens nursing is what i really want to do BUT we are so broke at the mo that the only way out i can see is for me to get a job.
I know alot of you will say well you can do both but I know I can't.
I started the colege course once before and because of situations at home i gave it up. From doing the little bit of the course that I did, I know that it has to be one or the other. You get given alot of work on the course and I am not the most organisaed of people so I would need the rest of the week free (well free ish cos of ds) to sort work out. I think if i tried to combine a job and college I would soon fall behind with college. My old tutor agrees with me and said she wouldn't advise me working whislt on the course.
So do i get a job to keep us afloat and try and do the course in several years from now or do we live like church mice whilst i go about getting a career ???
