¶ … Nursing Science for the express purpose of pursuing my vocational goals of becoming a professional nurse. It is also my hope to contribute to the overall xxxxxxxxxx University community by actively participating in student affairs that improve the experience of my fellow students.
In general, my desire to study Nursing is two-fold: first, it is likely the most productive possible application of my natural desire to help others; second, the current economic situation has made the nursing profession an even more attractive option than it was already by virtue of my long-standing life plans. While so many other industries and professions are experiencing a significant reduction in demand, one of the consequences of the aging American population is that the demand for skilled healthcare providers is increasing rapidly in a trend that is expected to continue (and accelerate) in the next decade, especially. In that respect, nursing represents a perfect situation for me because it already was an opportunity to apply my natural desire to care for others.

According to a recent study published in 2008 in the United Kingdom, researchers determined that empathy and caring among Nursing program students (as measured by questionnaires) declined throughout the educational training process, with program entrants and first-year students consistently exhibiting greater levels of empathy and caring than upper-class students. Therefore, part of my commitment to my future profession is to defy that phenomenon to the best of my ability through conscious awareness and effort throughout my undergraduate studies at xxxxxx University and my professional training afterwards. Ultimately, I hope that effort will also enable me to contribute positively and consistently to the xxxxxxxxxx University community during my undergraduate education should I be fortunate enough to be awarded admission to your fine institution.
