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.

Within the clinical settings, our professors are so eager for us to learn. You are present, they are present, and you truly do see how much someone can care for you and your success as a student. It feels like family here and I know I can always talk to my teachers.

One of the key parts of neurology is getting to talk to patients, to hear their story and understand what’s going on. I love talking to people, and I realized that this field was exactly what I wanted.

“WVU was the most cost-effective option since the University and the School of Nursing offer many scholarships. We chose the Morgantown Campus because it wasn’t my hometown, but it wasn’t too far away. All the factors like location, price and program lined up perfectly. It was so easy to find information about the WVU Nursing program. When we were researching colleges, we found we could see the whole course catalog and what you take every semester. It was super organized and easy to figure out.”
