“HACC has an excellent reputation and provided the most efficient path to becoming a nurse given that I already had a degree in industrial engineering. I did not have to repeat classes that I had already taken years prior for my engineering degree. HACC also provided the best return on my investment of time and money,” said Lora Kelly, HACC alumna and registered nurse at Carlisle Outpatient Surgery Center.
