Welcome to Megans' Post Graduation page!
Some goals i would like to achieve after graduation would be to go to college for nursing. I love working with kids so nursing is one option that is perfect for me. Another option i concidered was teaching. If i was to do this i would go into elementary eduacation and special eduacation, but since there is a demand in the health department, i think nursing would be a great career to get into to. Some reasons i would like to become a nurse is many of my parents friends are nurses or doctors. I have spoken to several of them and asked if this would be a wise decision. Almost all of them have said that it would be a great profession to go into because the way our economy is today, it will be hard in the future to find a job out there that isnt as demanded as the health department. Also since many of the baby boomers are going into early retirement, more job oppurtunities will be available for me in the future. There are a few parts that have helped me make my decision in my college major, but i am still researching what school has the best program for me and where i can succeed. As of now i have two very good schools that I am looking at that have very good nursing programs. These school are, California University of Pennsylvania and Waynesburg University. I have recently visited Waynesburg and i really liked their nursing programs. On April 10, I will be going to visit CalU and hopefully make the biggest decision of my life. I am very excited! While searching these schools i had to look up many aspects that greatly affect my decison. I had to look up the costs; room and board, tuition, scholarships, loans, grants, etc. Apart from the costs i also researched what the area is like around these schools. They are pretty much in the middle of nowhere which is perfect for me. They also are both building new facilities. Having updated technology is a huge component in the nursing department.
