Our student success stories
Meet Alicia
If you’re considering university study, just go for it. I was so worried that I would be too old or left behind, but you aren’t. The support has been so amazing. A Bachelor of Nursing is the perfect degree. I want to pursue a career as a registered nurse and hopefully one day, a midwife. I think it would be such an incredibly humbling job.
