Laura Shearman, MSN NP '17
Laura's goal has always been to become a nurse practitioner, and she chose Â鶹¹û¶³ for its emphasis on hands-on training. "This style of teaching helped me to learn the skills I need to know to succeed as a nurse practitioner. I'm not just a number, either. At Moravian, students are selected not solely based off of test scores or grades, but also based on potential and determination."
