    Most programs I am familiar with are anywhere from 10 to 15 months long. It is my understanding that it is a full time program and students cannot complete the requirements while also working a full time job.
    Could you get student loans or apply for student grants and possibly even move back home with your parents or move in with other family to save money to be able to do the program?
