At the time of signing up for financial aid and student loans, they wanted to do a credit check for the parent of an adult student. When asked if it was a soft or hard credit check, they stated soft credit check and it would not affect the credit score. A few days later the hard credit check inquiry showed up. They refused to give copies of the signed documents for the student loans. After the financial aid was approved. The admin kept asking what stage was the process in. Information they should already know. Because their call was not returned on demand they denied enrollment. They are unprofessional and committing fraud to receive federal funding.

My journey with Gurnick Academy was not a straight path. I initially enrolled at the Sacramento…read morecampus, but I was distracted by life and did not take my education as seriously as I should have. I ended up failing during my prerequisite courses, leaving me with a $1,500 debt that I had to repay before I could try again. When I decided to return to nursing school, I carefully researched my options and chose the Modesto campus. Although both campuses were about 40 miles from where I lived, the commute to Modesto felt more manageable. More importantly, the Modesto campus felt like home. The support I received from the instructors and administrators went far beyond academics. They not only taught me how to become a nurse, but how to become a good nurse. Those lessons will stay with me throughout my career and for the rest of my life. My biggest piece of advice to future students is simple: read the books. Do not rely solely on Quizlet or shortcuts. Read the chapters, take handwritten notes, and put in the work. I am not the smartest person in the room, but I worked hard and gave this program my full effort. I want to express my sincere appreciation to Tu, Mr. Bennie, Ms. Laura, Amber, both Stephanies, and Stephanie at the front desk, who always answered my questions and every phone call. I am especially grateful to Stephanie Kelly, my first clinical instructor, as well as Ms. Maria, MJ, Ms. Nisha, and Tina, the nurse at my clinical site. Because of the guidance, encouragement, and support of these incredible individuals, I successfully became a licensed nurse. Today, I am proud to be working as a nurse in San Francisco. Thank you, Gurnick Academy Modesto, for helping me achieve a goal that once felt out of reach.

This school is honestly pretty amazing don't let the 2-star reviews fool you. I just finished the…read moreVN program, and you truly get out of it what you put into it. If you can make it past Module 1, the rest of the program is cake. Fundamentals of Nursing is what takes most people out, not because it's impossible, but because it forces you to completely rewire how you think and develop real critical-thinking skills. A lot of students get discouraged or self-conscious and quit early, but I promise you can do it. If you're reading this and want to be a nurse: you can do it. Study smarter, not harder. Tools like NotebookLM helped me a lot it can turn lectures and notes into podcasts and even generate ATI-style practice questions from your PowerPoints. Once you understand the why behind the material, everything clicks and becomes so much easier. Ms. Nisha is amazing and offers math tutoring, which was a huge help. (Generally, I know people struggle with math for the Dosage Calculations) Overall, the school really does work with you to the best of their ability you just have to show up, put in the effort, and not quit. My only real wish is that they offered an RN bridge program. Instead of running 4 VN programs a year (with morning and afternoon cohorts), I'd love to see 3 VN programs and 1 RN bridge program added annually.

I think it was checked half ass and not properly... Had them put new shocks and struts on and they did exactly that... Took the car to Midas to have the brakes done which i'm glad I had Midas do and not them... Come to find out none of our tires were on correctly and bolted in properly. Midas looked at us like we were lucky to be alive. Tires were extremely loose and had so much wiggle room once lifted up... Please check and double check your work! They taught me a lesson to not come back to have free work done or recommend this school to anyone...

Tina had my review removed so here it is again…read more After I left my review on the Google business of Certify Central Valley, the business magically disappeared the next day, thus hiding all the other bad reviews calling her out on scamming students. So I'm writing my review here. Negative stars, do not sign up with Certify Central Valley for Sterile Processing or any other courses Tina offers. The owner Tina Toma Melendrez is a scammer and liar. She charges students whatever amount she can get, some more some less while saying she is giving you the best discount or a great deal. (It's not) I signed up for a Sterile Processing course with Tina before all the bad reviews started to appear and had already paid her. Tina's course is not even accredited. Tina was late to almost every class and had constant cancellations even though she lives a fews blocks around the corner. There is a reason why when signing up for this course that she asks students to transfer her the money instead of her as a business charging the student as a transaction. When you transfer money to someone, you cannot dispute the transaction and she knows this. She never wanted to communicate via text or email regarding the terms of the course or externships because she doesn't want a written record of what she promises or says to students. She always said "call me, call me, call me" Many previous students left bad reviews about being scammed by paying $1,500 for an externship that was nonexistent. She will not refund you because it is all a scam and there is no externship. Tina offered many students, myself included an externship if you paid her $1,500. This is all a lie, there is no externship and she will make up excuse after excuse as to why it is being pushed back or things "being out of her control" She just wants your money. Many students have and are suing her for the externship and have successfully won. The course that Tina taught, powerpoint presentation of slides that she showed was just basically her notes from the textbook from when she took the course many many years ago. You are better off buying the textbook yourself and self studying for the board exam or going to an accredited institution. What Tina taught in the whole course only covered 1/3 of what was on the board exam. At the end of the course she offers a resume building workshop that only consisted of her telling students to "use chatGPT to write your whole resume" she would tell students what keywords or phrases to type into chatGPT to build your resume. Tina told students to lie on their resumes saying we had hands on experience from her course knowing damn well all we did was pass around some instruments. Tina Toma Melendrez is a money hungry scammer, do not sign up for her class unless you want your money stolen. I will keep posting my reviews even if you have the business removed Tina.
