You can expect to graduate from our university as a competent, compassionate nurse who lives with purpose and serves with integrity.

"Before nursing school, I was raising my kids and volunteering for hospice. I joined the ABSN program, with the goal of becoming a hospice nurse for the elderly. Most people my age think it’s too late to go back to school—but it’s not. Nursing school went by so fast. I now get to spend the next 20-plus years helping others."

— Megan B., ABSN Program Graduate, 2017
