Statement of Purpose - Help?

Published

Hi there:)

I was hoping someone might be kind enough to point me toward some examples of Statement of Purpose for Graduate School (Nurse Educator). I "googled" & came up with next to nothing.

Any help, suggestions, or input is greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance for your valuable time!!

They are asking you to write about yourself and what you plan to do as an educator. Your strengths and qualities that will make you perfect for this path. What are you bringing and can offer to the table/group. I would be glad to send you a copy of my statement of goals and purpose that I wrote to GW and another school that you could use as a model if you would like.

I don't have a sample, though if you search I know in the past I've found examples through university sites. I want to say U-Mich had some good examples. In general though, focus on answering their purpose question, give lots of examples, expand on things you want them to know. Don't just repeat your resume (they already have that!) and I use it to explain any outstanding negative aspects. In this situation I just own whatever the issue is and say how it has made me move forward, don't give excuses or blame anyone/anything. Try to avoid cliche answers, like "I'm a nurse because I love caring/helping people," yes, but so does every other person applying. Think about all the reasons why you want to be a nurse educator, use your experience and goals to expand on those and include why that program is the best choice for your education in that field. I hope that helps!
