[Discussion] Changing Major to Public Health
I am currently a junior and I unfortunately did not get into nursing school which is what I wanted to do and I’m being told by advisors that public health is a good alternative. I am currently affording school through the Pell grant so once I graduate I won’t have that aid anymore.
If I do end up graduating with a BSPH I would like to plan on applying to nursing schools again after. If I don’t switch my major either I’m potentially delaying my graduation by over a year. If I end up having to work for a year or two to afford this though.
How are post graduate jobs for a BSPH looking?
What is it exactly I can do with a BSPH?
And honestly tell me everything you wish you knew about public health before pursuing it.
I really want to see if this is worth the switch, or if I should just wait it out and hope I get into a nursing school for next year fall.
