I am 39 and taking my prerequistes. I hope to enter a nursing program in fall 2008. There are long waitlists at many 2-year Community College programs, but I just continue to work as an MT and take my pre-requistes.
I have a woman in my psychology class who is 45 and worked in food service. No nursing background. She is changing careers and finished her last prereq. She will went the nursing program this fall. So it can be done. My friend is also inher mid 40s. Stay-at-home mom, doesn't work, and goinginto nursing.
I myself am a single Mom. Family will help me and loans when I am in the program. Again age 39. So there are LOT of people switching midlife.
