Should I go back to school or just get another low skilled labor job

I was thinking of going back to school because I would have enough money to pay off my loans with the old OSAP system and still have some money to fall back on

But now with the new OSAP system, I would have debt after I graduate with 0 dollars to my name at the best possible scenario.

I was going to take BScN (Bachelors of Science in Nursing) in Humber, I did the OSAP calculator with the new system and I would have 13k loan per year with 3k grant.

I am lucky to live with my parents but I am scared that if I fail I would legit have no way to pay it off and be in a worse off position than just getting a job.

I'm not really too sure.. to put it simple I either wage slave for the rest of my life or make this happen and have a shot at a decent life..

I just want to know your opinions on this that's all

BScN

So I just accepted the offer for Humber for BScN

I am not gonna lie I am nervous as hell and stressed. I haven't gone to school since I was 20 years old and I graduated in IT. With the job market its absolutely terrible and I am now 28 years old.

Going back now I have zero background in biology/chem other than the recent prereqs I did in ILC

I'm just wondering if anyone has any tips? My brother is an RN and hes saying Anatomy, Pharmocology, Pathophysiology are the hardest so I know what to look out for

How did you guys manage the difficulty to make it easier or doable? (Of course I'll have to work hard and put in the effort, but it has to be quality effort and I understand that)

Did people really exploit OSAP that much that Doug Ford made these changes? Where am I able to see such data?

The only thing I found was they investigated 900 cases of fraud. 900 is a very small amount of cases for the time that OSAP has been out so I just want to know if Doug Ford is pointing out outliers as an excuse to make these changes and put the money somewhere else
