[quote=Anonymous]OP, you're being very risky and naive going back to become an RN this early in the game. Sure, it's a great career, but as a former RN, I'll let you in on the not so secret that the beginning years are hell, and you need to make sure you have help lined up before you even consider it. As a student, you have clinical hours outside of "regular school" hours. As a new grad, you're getting all the sucky shifts - holidays, overnights, weekends, etc. These can provide a huge childcare issue if you don't have that considered ahead of time. Aside from this, it's hard, breaking work, emotionally and physically, and isn't something that I'd recommend someone take on on a whim just to help their financial situation. Personally, in your situation, I wouldn't be looking at taking on any extra debt and insecurity, especially considering you already have a degree, and I especially wouldn't look at nursing as it obviously isn't something you have a passion for, or you would have taken it instead of communications to start with.
