Hello Avery,

I actually had a different response. My colleagues are very supportive of my decision on pursuing my DNP. They are just worried that I’m taking a lot on my plate- having a full time job, 2 kids, and school all at the same time. Our hospital also offers good tuition reimbursement and additional financial aid when classes are taken in their school. I’m sorry that you didn’t have a positive reception from your co-workers. I do encourage you do to keep pursuing your dreams because at the end of the day, it is your life and for your future.
