“Immaculata offered a simple, straight-forward approach to earning my master’s degree in nutrition. Small class sizes allowed me to form lasting relationships with my professors, and the nurturing environment provided the support I needed to grow, develop and excel while pursuing my degree. All of my Immaculata experiences honed my leadership, communication and counseling skills. Because of Immaculata, I now embrace being a lifelong learner in the field of dietetics and am privileged to be a dedicated and compassionate professional in service to patients, their families and those with whom I work.”
