I have the opportunity to apply for a job that will provide me with free tuition and allow me to attend class while on the clock with no restrictions. There's a good chance I'd get it too. However, it would be a 40 hour per week job (4, 10 hr days). That said, I feel like the schedule that I have put together for this fall's classes, as well as my prospects for next spring, would be substantially hindered. Rather than completing the few premed classes I need in 12 months it'd likely take me somewhat longer. However, I can't help but feel like such a work opportunity would be exceptionally worthwhile as well as give me something to do during my gap year in the future.
Would you rather take longer to go through premed if it were free and you were paid while in class, or would you rather go in debt and do it all faster?
I quit a great full-time law enforcement job to go back to school to finish out my premed sequence, and I just started a part-time 911 dispatcher job to help make ends meet. My whole rationale was to focus on school, yet the opportunity has manifested to perhaps get a university police officer job that would provide me with the above noted perks. The consensus is that administration wants their officers in class. What do you think?
