My Choice of College

I actually have two colleges in mind.


I chose the University of California, Los Angeles because it is said to be one of the best ranking schools in the US academically. The nursing program provided there is also one of the best which is why it's on my list of colleges that I would want to attend. They give the opportunities to do clinicals in hospitals; basically they offer hands on training.

Another choice of mine, University of California, San Francisco, is known for innovation in medical research, public service, and patient care. I'm interested in their nursing program as well. It is ranked as second in the nation.
