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.

Please read before enrolling. I have just graduated from this LVN program, and I can honestly say…read morethat throughout the entire 12 months, the program was extremely unorganized. Module 1 was by far the most difficult not because of the material itself, but due to poorly prepared instructors who did not seem knowledgeable about what they were teaching, along with administration that relied heavily on fear and intimidation rather than support. Module 2 continued with the same issues. When I reached out for help regarding a class concern, I contacted Mr. Baca, the VN coordinator, and received a very cold, dismissive response. There was no compassion, no guidance, and his demeanor was unprofessional, rude, and insincere. This lack of support was consistent throughout the program. Module 3 was overall the easiest academically; however, the Med-Surg 2 instructor was frequently absent and displayed petty behavior, which further reflected the program's lack of structure and accountability. Module 4 was the one exception. Dawn, the OB instructor, was exceptional--she is one of the most passionate and dedicated nurses I have ever met. Ms. Charmaine, the instructor thats a NICU nurse was also outstanding and truly amazing. These two instructors were the highlight of the program and the only ones who genuinely cared about student learning and success. Along with Jay the clinical instructor, he holds a lot of passion for what he does. I did pass the exit exam and have completed the program. I would only recommend this school to individuals who are 100% committed to becoming a nurse, highly resilient, and capable of navigating a program with minimal support. Unfortunately, there is little to no help from instructors or management. Ms.Tu although i did not speak to her much she was always professional and helpful when i did contact her. Overall, this program lacks organization, professionalism, and adequate student support.

One of the advisors in charge of attendance was incredibly judgmental to me personally. They are trying very hard to get people to attend and sign up because they need students money to stay open.

So disappointed and really sad that the school did not care about my feelings when I asked for help. 10/10 DON'T RECOMMEND
