On behalf of all peer mentors in the Faculty of Nursing, I would like to welcome you to UNB and to our nursing program. My name is Charlene Yazdani and I am going into my third year of nursing in the fall. Prior to entering the program, I did one year in the arts program straight out of high school, as I was wait-listed for the nursing program.
I successfully transferred into nursing the following year. I understand what it is like to be a student out of high school, and also a transfer student. I will be one of the peer mentors that will be helping you with your transition into the program.
On behalf of the UNB Moncton nursing peer mentors, we would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to the program! My name is Taran Price, and I am entering my second year of the BNAP and will be one of your peer mentors this year.
Prior to the program, I received my bachelor’s degree in science and kinesiology. We all understand how stressful school and life can be, especially entering an accelerated program. I, along with my classmates look forward to helping you make this transition smoothly.
