As a wife, mother, and full-time nurse, Tanisha White already had a full plate when she enrolled at 国产主播鈥檚 online Master of Science in Nursing-Nurse Educator program.

But thanks to time management skills and WCU鈥檚 online program, Tanisha said she was able to find the right balance and graduate with her master鈥檚 degree.

鈥淚 did my research and found that West Coast fits with my life and work schedule,鈥� she said. 鈥淭hey really personalized things for me and offered many things other programs didn鈥檛.鈥�

An ambulatory medicine registered nurse working in Los Angeles County, White first heard about WCU after being referred to the school by a co-worker. Now a proud WCU alumnus and aspiring nurse educator, White said anyone can achieve their goals if they put their mind to it.

鈥淵ou have to have the passion and compassion to want to help others excel in nursing,鈥� Tanisha said. 鈥淵ou have to stay focused and don鈥檛 let anything stop you or any obstacles get in the way.鈥�

Tanisha said she found a passion for teaching during her undergraduate nursing program and knew she wanted to go back to school.

鈥淒uring my pre-requisites, I assisted my good friend, and she passed the class, which allowed me to see that I have the capability to teach others,鈥� she said.
