Make Your Nursing School Application Stand Out

You know you want to be a nurse, and you’ve picked out a school and program to begin your nursing education. Now all you need to do is complete your application! This video will help you understand what you need to do to complete your application, broken down by which parts are most important.

When you’re applying for acceptance into a nursing school program, you should know the relative importance of the various parts of the application. The more competitive the school, the more likely it is that each element will be considered very carefully. Your GPA and transcript are extremely important, much more so than your standardized test scores. And pay particular attention to the essay portion of the application. That carries a lot of weight and it’s your opportunity to demonstrate exactly what kind of committed, involved, and successful nursing student you’ll be. Any recommendations from others are of only moderate relative importance, as is your interview.
