Choosing A Nursing School
By Dave Kettner
I’ve been applying to school recently. I’ve put applications in to several programs and am just waiting to hear back from them with their response. I don’t really know what field I’m ultimately interested in, I just know that I want to go to school. I figure that if I have a particular aptitude, it will show up during class.
The practical program at the school at Herzing College in Birmingham, Alabama looks nice. I like Birmingham and could see myself living there while I study.
The child and teen program at the school at Arizona State sounds interesting. I’ve been to Tempe before and I really like it there. I know that it is hot, but I’ve lived in Texas all my life and I think that I can handle it.
The University of California San Francisco school has two programs that look good. They have one program for pediatric and another for mental health nursing. I think that I might like

one of those fields of nursing.
Geriatric is not going to suit me, I don’t think. I read about the program for geriatric at The University of Colorado at Denver school website. It looks very comprehensive, but I feel no call toward geriatric school programs.
Cognitive therapy is taught at the school for the University of Delaware. They also teach a registered nurse refresher course that I obviously don’t need, yet!
What I have found is that there is a school for every discipline and that all I really have to do is decide what state and town I like best. The school I choose will probably work out just fine.
The greater considerations for me when it comes to school include climate, population and community events. I liked to live places where there are community events to participate in. I would also like to find a school that is near a large Unitarian Universalist congregation.
