I am writing to inform you of my interest in the Master’s of Science in Family Nurse Practitioner Distance Learning Program at University of Cincinnati. I have submitted my application with applicable documentation. When I graduated from high school, I had a different career path, which was to become a physician assistant. I obtained my Bachelor of Science from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2006 and then attended Virginia Tech in the fall of 2006 to take prerequisites prior to applying to graduate school. I was attending Virginia Tech when the April 16, 2007 school shootings occurred. This was an especially difficult time being surrounded by so much heartache. However in the face of this heartache was hope, hope in humanity. The community came together in such despair to provide comfort and healing. The incident really made me evaluate my life and as a result, I decided to take a break from school. I had minimal health care work experience at this time and wanted to gain knowledge before starting graduate school. This life-changing experience and break led to my discovery of nursing. A year later I began the registered nursing diploma program at Sentara College of Health Sciences. Nursing school was the first time I had hands-on patient care. It was not until I had my license and began working on the floor did I truly start blossoming as a nurse. I have grown substantially and have never felt as comfortable as I do being a nurse. It validates my decision
Going into the nursing program at Colorado Christian University means so much to me. I have been to a couple different colleges but at that time I wasn’t sure what I wanted to go for. Now, I know exactly what my goal is and what I want to achieve with school. I currently work as a Hospice CNA, I love my job. I will be the first out of my parents and mothers side of the family to graduate from a four year college. Also, being a nurse is something I’ve always dreamed about. Working as a hospice CNA has really made me value life and has opened my eyes to nursing. I love being there for my patients and their families. I truly feel like this is my purpose on earth to help others. I feel so rewarded to be able to take care of these people that cannot
As a young child, I was always drawn towards the field of health care. I remember reading about the many options that are held within it and wondering what path it would lead me on. Neonatal nursing was something that always came into my mind, but it was often pushed to the side by people and teachers who thought I should become a pediatrician instead. This became a real struggle for me, but as I grew up and began researching and exploring the health care field I came to a decision for myself. I came to the realization that everyone was wrong. I didn’t want to be a doctor at all. This sudden burst of independence from what everyone else wanted was the first step to reaching my end goal. Along with this, an accelerated education, volunteer
Soon after, I received my licensure and began working at The Queen's Medical Center as a Registered Nurse (RN) in early part of 1994. Since becoming a RN, I have provided care to a great deal of patients and reassured countless numbers of family members. As a RN, I've also become the coordinator of care, patient advocate, and teacher to the patients I cared for while serving as the eyes and the ears of the physicians. As with any human, I enjoyed sharing the laughter with my patient and cringed at site of their pain and despair. For these reasons, I believe that being a RN is a great career choice for me. However, for these same reasons, I still feel that I am not a complete nurse; hence I've decided to go back to school and try to earn my Bachelor in Science Degree in Nursing
I am writing to state my keen interest in the New Graduate Nurse Residency Program that you advertised on the employment opportunities of your website. I will be graduating in May 2016 from Northwest Mississippi Community College with an Associates Degree in Nursing. I anticipate taking the NCLEX-RN state board exam in June 2016.

My initial interest in nursing began from my experience with my grandmother. It was in the fall of 2007 when my grandmother was sent to the hospital due to hypernatremia. My dad would pick me up every afternoon from school to visit my grandmother. I was given the responsibility to look after my grandma for nearly two weeks that includes in feeding her, assisting her, and other light duties. What fascinate me during my visits in the hospital were the nurses who assisted and took care of my grandma. They treated my grandma with dignity, kindness, compassion, courtesy, respect, understanding, and love. Their commitment, professionalism, dedication, determination and skills inspired me to pursue a career in the medical field. From that point, I realized that nursing is a field that enables people impact other people’s lives and make a difference. At 9 years old, being a nurse was a childhood dream and now I am at the point of turning my dream into reality. I want to study and pursue my dream registered nursing at Ryerson University that offers a nursing degree program that focuses on developing student’s critical thinking skills, ability to analyze reflectively and apply theory through community health focused practice making Ryerson one of the best nursing schools in Canada.
Neither of my parents attended college, but my sister became a nurse and created a glass ceiling that I never thought I would be able to shatter. As I was pushed towards a nursing degree and told that it was “good enough” I failed and blundered through my first few years of college. I didn’t want to be a nurse and I knew that in my heart I wouldn’t be happy with the profession, so I took a break and became a nanny for a child with autism. I traveled the world with this little boy and after two years had passed I became more confident and ready to fight for my dreams.
Due to the hands-on learning opportunities and experiences I have been given, in addition to skills and knowledge I will achieve through working as a Registered Nurse throughout my journey to becoming a Family Nurse Practitioner, I am certain I am ready to begin this life changing endeavor.
My educational goal is to be accepted to an accredited family nurse practitioner program that is recognized locally and nationally. I am looking to advance my clinical skill and knowledge to the level of advanced practice. I want to be on the forefront as healthcare continues to revolutionize.
For as long as I can remember, or since the first time I met a nurse, I knew that was what I wanted to do. I have always held a great deal of respect for those who care for others in their time of need, and sacrifice their own emotional health to be strong for someone else, when they could not be strong for themselves. For several years my fear of being unsuccessful held me back from pursuing this dream, until I decided to finally take the first step and become a certified nursing assistant, and enroll at Clinton Community College to begin my journey to becoming a registered nurse. In the summer of 2014 I had decided to take control of my life and pursue my dream of working in the field of healthcare.
I am writing to express my interest in admittance to the South University Family Nurse Practitioner program for fall of 2016.

The career I plan on pursuing will be Nurse Assistant. Some people may wonder why I decided to choose Nursing Assistant so now I want to tell you why. Ever since I was a little girl I loved watching nurses do their job like in hospitals in other places. I never really actually realized how much I really wanted to end up being a Certified Nurse Assistant until I witnessed some death right in front me. I watched that person get hit and just laid there and was just dying and I was just wishing I could’ve done something to help that innocent man. And while I use to sit at the hospital with my mother I had seen how caring and proficient they were to her. All the things I’ve witnessed and being through made me open my eyes and realize the Nursing was for me and I

It started when my father was in the hospital. I saw him lying on the off-white, uncomfortable bed sheets in such discomfort that my only hopes were to reduce his suffrage and alleviate any mental, physical, or emotional agony that arises. From this point on, to this day, I know I want to attend a university to pursue my goal of becoming a Nurse. Over the course of high school, I have been searching for a college with top notch academics and a captivating community enriched with passion and success; the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh has the embodiment of such an institution. The moment I stepped foot on the campus of University of Wisconsin Oshkosh, I envisioned my future path, and I came to discover that UW Oshkosh is “Where Marisah
While I have been working as a registered nurse for the past 2 years, I have learned how to manage a healthy split between time spent at work and personal time. If I am accepted into the Frontier Family Nurse Practitioner Program I am going to have to add study time into the mix. I have chosen to apply for the part time program because I believe this will allow me to focus more on my school work while I am still gaining nursing and patient experience on our Women’s Health unit.
My decision to apply to Masters in Acute Care Nurse Practitioner Program was not an easy one, given my compelling journey in nursing. Although I have been a registered nurse for three years, my passion for nursing started a decade ago. As a teenager, I was always fascinated by the nurses who took care of me at the hospital. I admired how they made a difference in people’s lives. Subsequently, I started volunteering to a nearby hospital to get acquainted with the reality of caring for others. Shortly, my grandfather had a Cerebrovascular accident and became debilitated. My passion for nursing became driven by purpose because I wanted to take care of my grandparents. I started as a Nurse assistant then to Licensed vocational nurse, and ten
