<p>Just a curious question if anyone has information, does anybody know if gender preference is given to male nursing student applicants?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>bump! bump! bump!</p>
<p>I’m GUESSING that it doesn’t matter. If it does matter, there is nothing you can do about it anyway.</p>
<p>The Federal Government started an investigation a couple years ago about whether some colleges were discriminating against females in their overall admissions pool, in order to try to maintain a 50-50 balance. The investigation was dropped because they said it was too hard to come to conclusions.</p>
<p>I tend to think it does matter, there are so few men in nursing. The opposite is true if you are a girl applying as an engineering major. I would imagine it gathers you some extra points.</p>
<p>Based on my experiences as an engineer, this is true. Most of the companies I’ve interviewed seems to prefer female engineer since they need to diversified the work environment.</p>
