Health Sciences Commencement

I feel very prepared to step foot into clinical practice thanks to the exposure I have had to rural communities, different practice settings and various patient populations.

Professors are always helpful, and it's clear that they are invested in the future success of their students. The ability to rotate at clinical sites for a semester exposes students to real-world applications of what we investigate in the classroom.

I am well prepared for my future endeavors; my professors took the time to help shape my future in nursing. From the coursework and clinicals I have obtained with classmates, I feel very well equipped to be a part of a team while managing my patients' condition.

Public health is not only a way for me to share my dedication to my country but also to its people.

I never questioned what college I wanted to go to, especially being from the area. WVU School of Nursing has such a good reputation and a supportive environment that truly wants you to succeed. As I talked to nursing students before entering college, I could tell this was the right place for me to grow as a student and a future nurse.
