To our Batch 2026 Philippine Nurse Licensure Examination (PNLE) takers of the UCC School of Health Sciences, this is your moment. Behind you are years of sleepless nights, demanding duties, return demonstrations, examinations, sacrifices, tears, and countless prayers—and through them all, you kept going. As you enter the examination room this August 29–30, 2026, trust everything you have learned, remain calm, and believe in how far you have come. You are stronger, wiser, and more prepared than the student who first began this journey. Let your faith be greater than your fear, and let your purpose remind you why you started. The School of Health Sciences and the entire Union Christian College family stand proudly behind you, praying and hoping for that isang daang porsyento—not as pressure, but as our shared dream that every UCCian will see their name on the list of new Registered Nurses.

Future RNs, claim it with faith: ONE TAKE. FIRST TAKE. NO RETAKE. Go forth, serve with compassion, and make a difference. May your answers be right, your minds be calm, and your names be on that list. To God be all the glory! 💚💛🙏🩺
