    Why do you need to get your education now? you have your whole life to do whatever you want! Don’t rush, its what 3 years of training? What’s 3 years compared to your whole life? nothing! Take out a student loan if you must, your only gonna use it for what its for right? Get a part time job in the meantime for paying off your other debts, etc. Keep your job while training, student loan will not last! Hope this helps.

    The longer you delay your education, the less likely you are to complete it. If you qualify for a full Pell Grant, that should more than cover your tuition and books for a community college RN program. Complete your fafsa online at http://www.fafsa.ed.gov and apply at your school then contact your school’s financial aid office to see what you qualify for.
