Gurnick Applicants

Published

Is anyone else applying for the Gurnick programs?  I have a question about the essay.  It has to contain, the purpose for enrolling, roles and responsibilities of a nurse, integrity, and accountability of nurses, and preparation for the program.  

My English teacher seriously ingrained into my head that we are not to use I, You, Me, My, or anything personal when writing essays... so I guess my question is how do you do this but still be able to clarify your purpose and preparation for the program?  

Maybe I'm overthinking this?

There is another thread on here where it discusses how gurnick isn’t wasc accredited therefore you won’t be able to to use your undergraduate degree to apply to a school like SMUs NP Program. They won’t accept the credits. I asked Vang, she said she knows a school in Texas that takes the degree. The MSN program isn’t an NP granting degree. Also I think the reason they offer this now is because of the reason stated above. Will be interesting to find out.

Oh interesting! Yeah I talked to Vang as well and she didn’t give super clear answers but I do know that others still eventually got their MSN before Gurnick even started theirs. I’m going to have to call some schools to ask! It’s so confusing IDK why there wouldn’t when the BRN is on their accreditation list. Wish it wasn’t this complex haha. Please update us on anything you hear of!

Same and I will do. When do you graduate 12/24? I’m joining in third session in January. 

Thank you so much for this assurance clarification. I am in between of choosing Gurnick and Chamberlains. I prefer Gurnick because it’s close to my house that traveling to Sacramento.  Please can you give me a hint of their interview questions as I have one tomorrow? I am nervous.

Awww what time is your interview? Mine is tomorrow too. Wishing both of us luck. Can’t wait to join them in January.

How was your interview? I did mine still waiting for the acceptance letter.
