For a professional program like an MBA, JD, or MArch, and even some MFA programs...you wouldn't even consider it---especially not in the first year.

Every program is different.
The program I was in was aimed at those already in the profession, people with full time jobs & lives. So we weren't expected to take as full a load of classes as those who are 'full time students'.
But as another poster pointed out, its also about how you manage your time. For a period of several years I worked a full time job (40 hours week), was a full time student (12 credit hours), plus was involved as a scout leader (2 hour meeting a week plus atleast one weekend). Now a days if you ask a college student to take out a couple of hours every other week and its a massive imposition. sigh.
