Why Study Nursing at Stautzenberger College
Whether you are trying to decide which school to attend or are thinking about transferring to Stautzenberger College for Practical Nursing, read why we believe your choice should be Stautzenberger College.
Step by step. Sometimes, to reach the career you truly want, you need to start with smaller goals. At Stautzenberger College, we believe you should learn from those who have experienced this and could point you toward the first step. That's why we hire instructors such as Brecksville's very own Jorden Buddner.
At Stautzenberger College, our students don't keep what they have learned to themselves. Besides putting their skills into practice during their careers, many alumni return to share their knowledge and experience with current students. One recent example is graduate Kimberly Duncan.
“If I won the lottery, I would...”
“If I had an extra day in the week, I could use it for...”
We like to think about what we could achieve if we were lucky enough to have life change specifically to fit our needs. However, there's so much you could accomplish on your own. Instead of relying solely on luck or others, start taking steps now to work toward your goal.
Are you always the first one to try something new? Learning how to play the piano or speak a different language could be difficult without any guidance. However, bigger decisions, such as whether or not to attend college, may feel impossible when your relatives have not completed any higher education and cannot offer advice. When Dominique Carter was faced with this dilemma, she decided to give college a chance anyway.
The decision to attend college may be difficult, but it could affect the entire course of your future. From providing you with knowledge and experience in your chosen field to helping you make connections to potential employers, higher education could be the key to reaching the career you have always desired.
Looking back on her time at Stautzenberger College, Julia Malanchuk knows that the effort she put in then allowed her to reach the career she has today. “Going to college changed my life,” she says.
For many of us, the very thought of going to the doctor's office could cause anxiety. Worrying about the potential cost, wait time, or test results may prevent you from going altogether. When Blair Gray found that the opposite was true for her, she knew she had discovered her new career path.
