    "When I enrolled at JJC back in the spring of 2020, I hadn't taken a college class since 1998. I was very intimidated by dipping my toes back into formal classes, so online classes at JJC felt like a great fit. When I started researching where I wanted to go to nursing school, I realized I didn't want to transfer anywhere else because of how well-respected and what a great reputation the nursing program at JJC has."
