Daniel Acevedo is a graduate of the NCC - SUNY Empire State College Multi-Award Nursing Program

"Going back to school was honestly the best choice for me.  As an adult student, I felt focused and goal driven because I knew the expectations of the real world. The NCC - SUNY Empire State College Multi-Award Nursing Program prepared me for my future in so many ways. I hope to use everything I have learned as I apply for a master's degree in Nursing Administration."

The Nursing Program was also the right fit because it allowed me to continue working full-time while I took courses.  The schedule of the NCC program and the flexibility of the online classes made balancing work, education and life easier.

One of the fondest memories I have from my time in the program is actually the first day of Nursing 101.  It was both exciting and gut wrenching.  I'm sure I was surrounded by classmates who shared the same feelings -- tons of information was being given to us, yet we knew deep down that completing the program would shape us into great nurses.

The program has prepared me for my future in many ways.  I learned great time management skills working full-time and going to school full-time.  Reading many chapters, completing lots of homework and studying for exams taught me how to handle stress.  Finally, my clinicals helped me to develop my bedside manner and critical thinking skills.  I hope to use everything I have learned as I apply for a master's degree in Nursing Administration."

My decision to attend NCC after high school stemmed from a variety of reasons. I had a lack of direction on what career to pursue, and I certainly noted the astronomical tuition costs at the schools that offered me admission. When doing my research, I noticed NCC's commitment towards its students.

I am a first-generation college student and have been paying my way through college. I had previously attended NCC because of its affordability and location. I had such good memories from my first time attending that it made sense to go back to finish my degree. People also recommended Nassau's Surgical Technology program to me because it is one of the best in the area.

NCC was a smart choice for me because I wasn't really sure what my passion was. Nassau gave me a chance to figure it out while not having to carry the financial burden of switching my major should I want to make a change.
