Overview

And you’d expect to hear those things about a top-rated Nursing program like Calvin University’s. But keep listening, and you’ll hear those same students talking about professors whose doors are always open.

They’ll describe a spirit of community, not competition. They’ll tell you about the Spanish-speaking patients that they encounter each week in the Burton Heights neighborhood. You’ll hear about a program that’s centered on service, and driven by deep Christian faith.

Key facts
