   sfaithj replied to sfaithj's topic in General Students

   Thank you for your response. I def have been thinking about alternative paths to where I want to get. If I fail one class this semester, I can still stay in the program, but need to repete. That essentially means that my program becomes 16 months lon...

7. Opinions on Midwife Shadowing?

   sfaithj replied to seaglassgreen's topic in Pre-Nursing
