You can get all of your classes in on Tuesday and Thursday and then work the other 5 days a week. That's what I am doing. It gives you plenty of time to do homework. When you get to the core nursing classes, it's going to be harder to work. A lot harder. They told me to expect to have to study 3 hours for every one hour of class time. It's going to take me 6 semesters all together. I am doing the same thing. You can get all of your classes in on Tuesday and Thursday and then work the other 5 days a week. That’s what I am doing.

But very very hard once in the core nursing program. Look at the school catalog you want to attend--when are those nursing classes held--what days & what hours. Some schools do not allow part time core attendance. Also, part time is going to take you far longer than 2.5 years, as some of those classes are sequential & not offered every semester. I strongly advise setting an appointment up with the nursing adviser & going over things. Maybe while doing the pre-reqs. But very very hard once in the core nursing program.
