520 _aAbstract This qualitative study examined the academic and personal transition of students from the Humanities and Social Sciences (HUMSS) strand into Level 1 of the Bachelor of Science in Nursing program. As an increasing number of senior high school graduates from non-STEM backgrounds pursue careers in healthcare, it became essential to explore how these students adapted to the scientific and clinical rigor of nursing education. Guided by Braun and Clarke's six-phase thematic analysis framework, the researchers conducted semi-structured interviews with 14 purposively selected first- year nursing students from Foundation University in Dumaguete City who completed their senior high school education under the HUMSS strand. Through systematic coding and theme development, four major themes emerged: (1) initial academic adjustment and learning gaps, (2) struggles in developing scientific competence, (3) emotional resilience and coping strategies, and (4) strong internal motivation to pursue a nursing career. Despite their limited exposure to science-oriented subjects in high school, participants exhibited adaptability, determination, and a capacity to overcome academic challenges through peer support, intrinsic motivation, and institutional guidance. The findings underscored the importance of academic bridging programs, emotional support mechanisms, and targeted interventions to assist non-STEM students entering health science fields. This study offers valuable insights for educators, curriculum planners, and policymakers in fostering a more inclusive and supportive nursing education environment.
