Not trying to burst your bubble, but the RN program is very intense — it’s going to be extremely hard to do with a full time job. I believe you can take some of the classes online through any college or university, but most of them are in person. It is a lot of hands on activity that prepares you for clinicals. Clinicals will be a huge challenge if you aren’t practicing your work in person. I wouldn’t recommend taking any online courses. Just take a course or two a semester – you’ll get it done eventually while still keeping your fulltime job.

Yeah If you can, I was wanting to do the same thing the delima that I found was I could not find a nursing program that offers night classes. Most programs do recommend that you not work full time. You could do a search of colleges in your area and if you can I would do the 2 year nursing program if it is a RN program. Before you do that you could call some of the local hospital and talk to a human resorce person ( I did this) and ask that person what qualification do they look for, Here in the mid west HR people told me that a 2 year is fine but they prefer a 4 year if you want to work with children (that is that hospitals network preferance) and that they help with tuition cost once you get hired
