Her journey into nursing began with online research, leading her to STC. Living in Edinburg, she found the college’s proximity and affordability to be an ideal match for her goals.

“STC has impacted me significantly,” she shared. “Their inclusive environment and comprehensive curriculum have built my confidence and made me feel competitive in this field.”

One of her most meaningful experiences this past semester was visiting hospice centers, where she worked to bring comfort and positivity to residents.

“It was an eye-opening and rewarding experience,” she said. “It reaffirmed my decision to pursue nursing.”
