    Academically, I yearn to immerse myself into the field of nursing. When inquiring about Stockton to people who attend and were accepted into the program, I got nothing but positive feedback. From the great faculty who accommodate to the students’ needs and are passionate about what they do, to the advanced nursing facilities which allow for a broadened learning experience, I also believe going to Stockton will help me with my academic goals because of its perfect and convenient location. Stockton University is close to both AtlantiCare campuses, which will be optimal for nursing clinicals and potential job opportunities. In many universities with medical programs, clinicals could be an hour or two away from the campus, but Stockton neighbors various medical facilities; exposure to the nursing field will be no problem at Stockton.…

Every time I perform at one of these festivals I am overwhelmed by how beautiful music can be when everyone I am working with is just as passionate as I am about the work we are doing and also extremely talented.…
