Emily Breckenridge
I have some college credits, but will be a new student at NOVA. I have a brief idea of what to expect from classes, but have no personal experience. I am looking forward to learning in the program of my choice, which is Medical Assisting. It has been my passion for forever and I've been told the nursing program is top rate.
