Shelbey Walker '23
When Shelbey Walker '23 chose to attend King University to pursue a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree, the only thing she was a bit apprehensive about it was how far it was from her home in Texas. Moving almost 20 hours away from her family posed a significant challenge, but happily she found her home away from home in Bristol.

“My experience at King has been transformative,” said Walker, who graduated in December 2023 and passed her NCLEX on the first try in January 2024. “The warm welcome from both professors and my nursing cohort created a supportive environment. Throughout the program, I had the opportunity to tackle challenging projects and take on leadership roles, contributing to my personal and professional growth. My professors were instrumental in providing guidance and support, ensuring not only my academic success but also my mental well-being.” Click here to read the story.
