I am a new student at GWC and am wondering about the Reputation of their Nursing Program?
I have read some 'ok things' and some 'not so ok things' about the program on this site ....however they are dated back in 2001-2004. But when people say that "Hospitals do not favor GWC students"...it's a little disconcerting.
I am thankfully, close to finishing the program. I have not enjoyed the program. I am older and have found it perhaps a different experience than for the younger girls. I believe the program was punitive rather than nurturing. I think I can say that most everyone, regardless of age, found it stressful for different reasons but some of my fellow students are very bitter about their experience. I really don't remember numbers but believe that about 5-6 were asked to leave each semester. I wish you good luck and hope you are sucessful in the program. Being excited helps.
