nursing with minor
I was just wondering if it's possible to have a minor (such as psychology) along with a nursing degree?
I'm not actually interested in pursuing one (if even possible actually) but I would like to know if it's possible since I never heard of a person doing that!!!


Thanks!!

Hey, I asked this question a while ago.. the response I got was quite informative:

"at nursing information sessions, we were told they don't recommend minors as it puts alot more stress on a student, and it doesn't put you ahead of any other graduating nurse when it comes to employment (well, unless you're in a french speaking area). If you do plan on doing the minor, plan to take summer courses as well, because with the clinical workload increasing every year, i'm told thats its extemely hard to do both during the school year."

Hope that helped!
