I have been accepted into an excellent nursing school, to start in the fall. I am a 33yr old married mother of 2 living outside of the state where the college is, but the school is just 7 minutes from my home, and it does its clinicals and placements at the hospital where I would like to work.
Here's the problem. Being out of state, I get no state aid from either state, and after government sub & unsubsidized loans, I still need $11,500 per year to go to this college. I have been denied for alternative loans because my credit isnt so good. My father has had 2 massive heart attacks and a double bypass. My family's life changed in the blink of an eye. I have put all my money (ok, my husbands money also) into keeping my father alive-his meds are expensive and at this time he is getting no help paying for these. $800 per month. He was in CICU for 23 days, 30 miles away from home and I put the rest of my life on hold to be there for him every day.
