Graduating in 2013 I was uncertain where I saw myself in the future. I always knew I wanted to be in the medical field however the million-dollar question was where? I looked into pharmacy, then dietetics, however while both are very important fields they also seemed very sedentary and monotonous. I appreciate a fast paced work environment and feel satisfied when I know I’ve finished my day having conquered challenges and handled any curve balls thrown my way. After having been with my grandma while she was in and out of the hospital for the later part of 2014 and then again for the birth of my niece I was able to watch many different types of nurses in action. It fascinated me the level of importance they played in the care of the patient.

I researched and researched before deciding the Everest program was right for me and I intend to be the most successful student I can be while in the program. In order to do this I’ve initiated many plans and life changes with the support of my family to be able to give nursing school 110% of my time and effort. After having worked 40-hours since the 11th grade I will be cutting back to working at the most two days a week, subject to change if I have clinicals or need extra study days in a quarter. I have the financial support of my mother and grandparents to take that added stress off of me while in my journey to finish the program. Timeliness and attendance are not an issue for me whatsoever as I have my own reliable vehicle to get me to the campus and if need be I have multiple options for emergency transportation if something should happen to my vehicle. I know that it is in my best interest to be at school, every day, on time and I have no doubt that I can fulfill that obligation just as I would in the nursing field. Knowing that the program is stressful and is increasingly more rigorous as the quarters go on I have made a plan with my family that should I need the extra support financially to only focus on school I will quit my job and do so, and I have also made myself very aware of the various student success tutoring options on campus. I also intend to have the support of other classmates, as I know networking is important in the nursing field. Overall I have made every plan and effort possible on my end to ensure that this will be the most successful two years of my student life thus far. Becoming a registered nurse is my number one focus and most important goal and I know that this program is my key to achieving that goal therefore I will take whatever measures I need to and have a back up plan to my back up plan in order to be successful and
