Student Spotlight

“Completing the Accelerated Program for Non-Nurses was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Becoming a nurse has enabled me some amazing opportunities in my career that I know I would have never achieved without it. [This program] helped to provide me with the confidence and determination to take chances in order to achieve my professional goals. The support we received from every instructor and staff member of the program was integral to our success. I am so grateful for the opportunity.”
