For Alexandra Dominguez Sanchez, attending Concordia University, St. Paul, is more than just an academic journey—it’s a pathway to achieving her lifelong dream of becoming a nurse. As a pre-nursing student, Alexandra works tirelessly to enter CSP’s nursing program this spring.
Being the oldest of three and the first in her family to attend college, Alexandra understands the value of education and the sacrifices it takes to pursue it. Thanks to the generosity of CSP donors, she can focus on her studies without the financial burden holding her back.
“Thank you for the gift of education,” Alexandra expresses. “Your generosity allows me to dream! With each semester passing, I’m closer to becoming a nursing student. My family and I appreciate your generosity so much. This support gives me hope and motivation to do my best in school and positively impacts my classmates.”
Choosing CSP was a decision that felt right from the start. The university’s highly ranked nursing program and strong financial aid opportunities made it the perfect choice for Alexandra. Since arriving on campus, she has found the CSP community to be incredibly welcoming.
“The campus is small, which makes it feel like a close-knit family. There are clubs and events for everyone, and people are always willing to help—whether tutoring or simply offering advice.”
One of Alexandra’s most impactful experiences at CSP has been her microbiology class with Dr. Rezcallah.
“She has so much passion, and it’s contagious. I go to the lab at 8 AM excited to see what we are doing that day. She makes learning easy and always pushes us like a mother would.”
With aspirations of becoming an emergency room nurse, Alexandra remains dedicated to her studies, knowing that every lesson brings her closer to her goal. Her time at CSP is shaping her academically and personally, instilling confidence and a deep sense of purpose.
Through the support of CSP’s community and the opportunities provided by generous donors, Alexandra is proving that hard work, determination, and a supportive environment can turn dreams into reality.
