State Authorization Gurnick Academy of Medical Arts offers distance education outside the state where the institution or program is physically located in California. All 50 states plus U.S. Territories regulate education on the state level. Gurnick Academy of Medical Arts makes every effort to follow each state’s regulations regarding offering distance education programs in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations, and accreditation standards. Students should research whether the Gurnick Academy of Medical Arts program meets their state’s professional requirements. A student’s physical location is identified at the time of application to determine program authorization requirements for enrollment in our programs. The basis for determining the student’s physical location is determined by official ID (a receipt of a Driver’s License or official U.S. identification) as required for admission (see General Admissions Requirements). If a student changes their physical location during the program, they shall notify Gurnick Academy of Medical Arts by completing a change of address form. Change of Address Forms are available on www.gurnick.edu or by asking a campus designee. Students must complete the Change of Address Form and bring the above-mentioned official documents in person to the Student Services Coordinator or Designated School Official located on their campus. Students can also mail notarized copies of documents with a cover letter explaining the change. Students who mail the certified documents must sign the cover letter, include their Gurnick Academy of Medical Arts student ID or social security number and date of birth, and send it to the student’s campus.
