I saw that..it's $26,000+!! Ahhhh! As a LPN I could finish my Bachelors at TESC in Natural Sciences and Mathematics for around $4,500 total or.....pay $26,000+ to complete a degree in something that I feel holds no real future at the moment (my opinion from observations of course). I hate to say I will be going with the $4,500 route and completing my Bachelors through TESC in Natural Sciences or Mathematics (or I may switch since there's no cost
or risk, it seems) and I feel honestly VERY happy about my decision.I rejected my acceptance into a RN program last year and couldn't be happier as of yet. I'm back to work and while no job is perfect, the stress level at my current job is about half of what nursing is. Perhaps I will never go back into nursing and use my license to volunteer for goodwill. That would make me very happy as well. At least it was an experience and something no one can take away from me. I will always have my nursing license should I need to use it.
I'm honestly really excited about the route I am taking at TESC. Scared to fail, but very excited all at once. I am finishing my application today!
