Hey! I wanted to get some advice from MPH people that are working full-time and going to school part-time. I currently work full-time and the job has to do with public health so I am getting a lot of experience. Although the job is about disputes and health policy (my interests lie in MCH), it's helping me get "my foot in the door". The company I work for also has other projects in MCH and global health so maybe I could transfer later on? It's so hard to leave w/the sweet benefits, like health insur. and tuition reimbursmt. I also have family responsibilities...helping my parents pay their mortgage and etc. which is a major reason for why I'm working at my current job.

Is there anyone out there in this situation? 😕 How are you managing? I'm looking at public health programs and there are a few that are accredited part-time/online but they are through JHU, UNC-Chapel Hill and some others at ASPH's site.
