Letter of Intent
What are your short- and long-term career goals and how will this program prepare you for them?
My short-term goals are to get a very high quality education in the nursing field, learning as much as I can both with hands-on skills and academic-related skills and background informational sources that are relevant to nursing education.

I am fully prepared to give of my time, my talent, my energy, and my full attention to everything I am asked and required to do. I do not go into this program thinking I can breeze through or somehow just to what is necessary. My whole adult life I have been the kind of person who is dedicated to putting out 100% of my energy to accomplish my goals, and whatever time it takes to do this work, and get the training I need, I will eagerly make that investment.
