Working full time and going to part time college how many?

Of course you can. It’ll be tough, that’s for sure, but only 2 nights a week for a couple of hours won’t kill you. Especially with such a great pay off in the end for all your hard work.

You’ll do fine!

Best of luck!

I attended community college in the morning while working evenings. It worked out to me being either at school or work from 7:45 a.m. – 7:30 p.m. not including all the study and homework time. It was very difficult for me to do 6. It can be done if you’re very organized and know to manage your time very well. If you a family to take care of also like me I definitely wouldn’t recommend 9.

Can you survive this? yes, but it depends on you. I worked full time and went to college year round taking either 6 or 9 hours while also being a single mother. It was difficult as I had to take my vacation days at work in order to study for major tests (and clean my apartment). I didn’t go out partying and only had time to meet up with my friends about once a month. My bf did help me with child care, but he and I sometimes didn’t have much time (or any time) for us.

But I now I am make a very good salary and have alot of flexibility in my job. I can take off to do something with my son or work remotely from any place with an internet connection most times. I spend plenty of money having fun, but I feel I deserve it after what I did to get my degree and job. As long as it is money and time I have, I plan to enjoy life now.

Make a commitment to yourself and your future and you can do it.

Hi there….I also work full time and go to school part time. I do not know if you are married and/or have kids. If not, it is very possible with lots of motivation and dedication. However, if you do have kids and/or are married, I STRONGLY suggest that you stick to your 6 credits. On two separate occasions, I tried to do 9 credits while working full time and both times I dropped one of my classes. I feel it is better to save your self the time, money and energy and take the two classes and do well in the them than to take three classes only to have put yourself in a high stress situation and come out with lower grades than you are capable of achieving. I wish you the best of luck!

At my school, we have formula and in this you cant go over 60 hours-at least it isnt recommended anyways.

take your school hours=9

multiply that by 2 for study time=18

and work time=40

9+18+40=67hrs, might be difficult depending on classes

so

6+12+40=58, might work out better for ya

I worked full time and took a 10-credit hour load at the same time. I survived, but I will say my GPA went down a bit (maybe 0.5). If you can manage sleeping, working, and getting your work done – you’re good to go.

I think its feasible since you’re only going two nights a week. Just give yourself plenty of time to rest! I work full-time and go to schoo part-time too and its very easy to take on too much!

You will need 36 hours (incuding in-class time) to do things like homework and lab hours (depending on what classes you take). Make sure you have enough time for lab hours and homework.
