What You'll Learn
Ask Calvin nursing students why they’re studying here, and you’ll hear a lot of different things. They might talk about their amazing clinical experiences at nearby hospitals, clinics, or other facilities. You’ll hear their plans to study abroad. They’ll share their plans for after they pass the NCLEX exam: maybe a job at a place like Vanderbilt, or a grad program at Johns Hopkins.
And you’d expect to hear those things about a top-rated nursing program like Calvin’s. But keep listening, and you’ll hear those same students talking about professors whose doors are always open. They’ll describe a spirit of community, not competition. They’ll tell you about the Spanish-speaking patients that they encounter each week in the Burton Heights neighborhood.
You’ll hear about a program that’s centered on service, and driven by deep Christian faith.
