Gurnick Academy uniform as part of the standard/programmatic dress code.

Please follow the sizing guidelines here. You must
ensure that you measure yourself accurately. If exchanges are needed after receiving your uniforms,
please note that shipping and handling costs will occur.

It is imperative that students make their uniform sizing selection based on the sizing
chart available for review. You will want to order the size(s) closest to your
measurements. As a reminder, the uniforms are more of a tapered fit.

If your size falls outside of the available selections, or if you anticipate changes in your size due to
unforeseen circumstances (such as pregnancy), please email [email protected] as soon as possible. It is essential,
and the student’s responsibility, to do this promptly to ensure their uniform can be properly
handled and delivered on time.

The uniforms have a slim, tapered fit.

If you selected the wrong size, please email [email protected] to discuss exchange options. If
you have already received your items or they have already been shipped, you may be responsible for
shipping and/or exchange fees.

You will be able to select the applicable style for your program at the time of your initial order. If
you would like to purchase different styles outside of your initial set, please visit our website here.

scrubs under your cap and gown. There will be no break in the ceremony or opportunity to
change your attire.
