So I’m currently in Surgical Technology school. I started the 2 year program 4 months ago. It’s going good so far. I’d be graduating next fall. The only problem & concern for me is that it’s mandatory for me to take the covid vaccine + 2 boosters for clinicals. Before I started the program I knew it’d be a possibility for me to take the vaccine but I continued on with being in the program. I told myself I’d just take the vaccine & take care of my health but deep down inside I feel like I’m going against my beliefs because I genuinely don’t want to take it. I’m in a battle being dropping out the program. I’ve been looking into other careers in the IT field. I’m leaning towards a computer science degree. I’m so sad because I just turned 21 & feel like I was on the right track to graduating soon, moving to a new state & building a career for myself. I feel really discouraged & sad now. The feeling of having to start all over & transfer to a new school for a degree I may not even really be interested. I invested so much time & money already in this program. Well my parents are paying for my 40k tuition but they are being very understanding & supportive, if I decided to drop out the program. They don’t agree with having to take the vaccine as well. I think it should be a choice. Any thoughts or suggestions?
Career, Education?
