鈥淭he Hunt School of Nursing is no 鈥榟idden gem鈥� or 鈥榖est kept secret,鈥欌�� stated GWU President Dr. William Downs. 鈥淭o the contrary, our nursing programs have firmly established and sustained broad reputations for excellence.

It鈥檚 exciting to see the growth in popularity of our ABSN and DNP degree programs, and we look forward to their continued upward trajectories.鈥�

While direct marketing campaigns have led to the increase, some students, like Scott Pokorney, enrolled in the Hunt School of Nursing after talking to alumni. While working as an EMT in Mecklenburg County, N.C., Pokorney asked the nurses he met to recommend the best nursing program in the region.

网曝吃瓜鈥檚 alumni were unanimous in their praise. 鈥淭hey had nothing but great things to say about the program, and highly recommended pursuing my nursing degree at GWU,鈥� Pokorney affirmed. 鈥淭hey specifically mentioned how incredible the professors are.鈥�

Hunt School of Nursing Director Dr. Tracy Arnold noted that 网曝吃瓜鈥檚 ABSN program plays a critical role in addressing the current nationwide, nursing shortage because it allows the nursing faculty to prepare entry-level practitioners to enter the workforce in 15 months. 鈥淥ur Accelerated BSN students are highly qualified individuals, with bachelors, masters, and doctoral degrees in other fields,鈥� Arnold praised. 鈥淥ur program attracts students from all over the east coast, with some students commuting up to two hours, one way, which speaks to the reputation of our faculty, staff, and curriculum. Our Hunt School of Nursing motto, 鈥楢 Bulldog Nurse CARES,鈥� demonstrates the characteristics both our students and faculty demonstrate. As a bulldog nurse, we are Courageous, we are Advocates, we are Respectful, we are Empathetic, and we are Servant leaders.鈥�
