I recently decided to go back and work on my nursing degree. I am employed full time. I put the brakes on the nursing clinical end. I can't justify spending the $70k for that part of the degree only to not be able to find work and still have to work at my current job. My current job is a good one and it's not a hardship. I was just trying to change careers to do something more meaningful. At this point I am contemplating getting a psych degree to round myself off and give myself more options in case I need it. |
Sorry to hear you are not going through w nursing. In my area of the world we have a nursing shortage. Just a bit of warning w a psych degree (sister is in that field). You need at least a Master's in that to find work in our state. You might want to check into what employers require in your state to be employed in that field. Some require a counseling certification after the degree program also.
