Health Sciences Commencement

I feel very prepared to step foot into clinical practice thanks to the exposure I have had to rural communities, different practice settings and various patient populations.

Choosing WVU to pursue dental hygiene was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. This program challenged me in the best ways—academically, professionally and personally.

With graduation right around the corner, I feel more prepared every day to be a nurse. My professors have made an incredible impact on not only my knowledge but also my heart. My professors have been excellent examples of how to be a good nurse and show your patients that you truly care for their well-being.

“WVU was the most cost-effective option since the University and the School of Nursing offer many scholarships. We chose the Morgantown Campus because it wasn’t my hometown, but it wasn’t too far away. All the factors like location, price and program lined up perfectly. It was so easy to find information about the WVU Nursing program. When we were researching colleges, we found we could see the whole course catalog and what you take every semester. It was super organized and easy to figure out.”

My experience in the WVU School of Dentistry has given me so much more than just the education needed to be a dentist. I have life experiences that have helped me grow into not only a more suitable professional for the field of dentistry, but to also be a better person.
