Tahmida Sultana

Tahmida Sultana came to Delaware Tech to "open doors to new opportunities and broader career options." She also wanted to experience personal and professional growth.

"Delaware Tech offers a great curriculum for nursing, and it is the most affordable school in Delaware. Moreover, it is located in a convenient area and has many facilities and opportunities for students."

When she first came to America from Bangladesh, Tahmida knew she needed to learn English in order to be successful in college. "Delaware Tech's ESL [English as a second language] program helped me improve my English."

Nursing is the perfect program for Tahmida as she seeks a career that is challenging, interesting, and that makes a difference in people's daily lives. "I find nursing challenging and rewarding and see it as an opportunity to help my family, friends, and patients through difficult times."

Tahmida advises other students to never give up. "Keep going. Always reach out to your instructors and advisors whenever you face any challenges."

After graduating with an associate degree, Tahmida would like to complete a bachelor's degree in nursing and start her career as a registered nurse. After that, she would like to complete a master's program.
