Gurnick Academy of Medical Arts

What is the cost of studying for a year at Gurnick Academy of Medical Arts?

The reported 2024-25 full-time tuition figure for Gurnick Academy is $18,720 for an academic year. It is an institution-level reference point, not a verified all-in price for every San Jose program or the total cost of completing one.

• Reported 2024-25 full-time annual tuition: $18,720.
• Average net price for students from families earning $0-$48,000 annually: $31,362.
• Average net price for students from families earning $48,001-$75,000 annually: $32,577.

Net price estimates include a broader cost of attendance and account for grant or scholarship aid; they are not tuition bills. The net-price figures above therefore should not be added to tuition. Individual expenses may include required fees, books or equipment, transportation, and living costs, particularly when clinical assignments require travel.

Financial aid can change what a student pays, but a loan reduces the amount due now rather than the total amount ultimately owed. In 2024-25, 84% of students received financial aid and 47% had student loans. The reported average grant aid awarded to undergraduates from federal, state, local, institutional, or other sources was $3,872. Eligible students should ask the financial aid office about the FAFSA, federal grants and loans, California aid, and any program-specific or military education benefits. A useful comparison is a written, program-specific estimate covering the entire credential, not just one academic year.

What are the work-study opportunities at Gurnick Academy of Medical Arts?

Students should distinguish a paid job from Federal Work-Study and from an unpaid or required clinical placement. None should be assumed to be part of every Gurnick Academy program or financial aid offer.

Federal Work-Study, where offered to an eligible student, is need-based aid earned through an approved job rather than money automatically credited in full to a tuition bill. Ordinary part-time employment does not require a Work-Study award, while clinical hours may be mandatory even when unpaid. Before budgeting around employment, students should ask financial aid whether Work-Study appears in their individual award and ask their program for its weekly class and clinical schedule.
