Direct Admit Nursing Program with Taylor

Transcript

Let’s meet Taylor, a junior nursing major with a minor in family and consumer sciences. Coming from Lancaster, Texas, most of the schools near her seemed too big or too small until Bradley gave her that Goldilocks moment. Add in Bradley’s direct admin nursing program and access to two major hospital systems and coming to BU was a no brainer. Give us the scoop, Taylor.

– Thanks Alex, growing up, I always knew I loved science and helping people, so I wanted to go into the health field where I could mix these two passions seamlessly. When I began my college search, I knew I wanted to branch outside my home state of Texas and find a place big enough where I could meet new people, experience new things, and still have a homey feel. I’ve been given the opportunity to do exactly that in Bradley’s nursing program. I started my clinical rotations at the local hospitals to get as much real world experience as possible. This was a major deciding factor for me in my college search. I knew I wanted to go to a place where I could be accepted directly into a nursing program and not have to retest. During my time here, I’ve been able to observe many surgical procedures in the hospital, as well as interact with all kinds of healthcare professionals. Bradley has given me the opportunity to thrive outside the clinical setting as well. I’ve joined many clubs and organizations that allow me to continue participating in activities I loved in high school, like volunteering and playing volleyball, and I still have plenty of time to hang out with friends. My schedule may be busy with clinicals, but I still have plenty of time to enjoy my college experience. Once my time at Bradley is complete, I plan to continue my journey in the health field and become a psychiatric nurse and then eventually a psychiatric nurse practitioner. I still have lots more to learn on my journey, but the adventure so far has definitely been worthwhile. Alright, Alex, back over to you.

– Thank you, Taylor. At a 96% NCLEX pass rate for undergraduate nursing students and 100% job placement within six months of graduation, there’s no doubt you’ll be making the world a better place in no time. Way to go, Taylor, and thanks again.
