"The nursing program here at MiraCosta College is the best! The faculty, staff, and other students are so helpful, knowledgeable, and supportive of our goal of becoming nurses. Every day I have the opportunity to learn something new and then actually apply that knowledge to my patients in the hospital and, if the timing works out, I get to see some of those patients walk out the doors in better health. It has been the most rewarding challenge of my life so far.”
