A Personal Statement Of Purpose To Become A Nurse

When I graduated high school, I was determine to become a nurse. I didn’t have much support because many people doubted me, but I didn’t let that put me down. I applied for many colleges and surprisingly got accepted to all of them, then I chose UMSL. When I started my freshmen year at UMSL, I knew that this journey was not going to be easy. But because of my determination I was able to passed all my prerequisite class . I remember when I applied for clinical, I was afraid that I wouldn’t make it. I pray every night because I wouldn’t know what to do if I didn’t make it to clinical. Then I received the letter from the college of nursing, and when I saw the word “congratulation”, I was more than happy. I don’t even know how to describe that
feeling. It was the best feeling I’ve ever felt, I felt like I’ve accomplished something huge, and this huge thing is going to put me far in life. Then I started to push myself even harder, sometimes those negative thoughts cross my mind once in awhile, but then I told myself, I made it here today, I have to keep fighting and work harder.
