I applied last year but no luck. I'll be a senior in a BSN program in the Fall, I might apply again.

I'm applying! Does anyone have any tips or someone who is not in the primary Financial Aid bracket? I missed by just $300! Has anyone gotten the scholarship who was not in the primary bracket for financial need?

I am applying this year and would love to hear from someone who applied and was accepted. How do you find out if you're in the primary financial aid bracket?

I am applying also. Starting my ADN program in 2 weeks, and I am in the first financial preference group, so we will see what happens. There is a webinar next week on the 20th in the evening where they will be doing a question/answer session as well as giving out some more information. Good luck!

Do you need to register for the webinar?

I'll be applying! I have some good LOR's but my accumulative GPA is a 3.65 so i think that will hurt me. Worst thing they can say is no, so it's worth a shot!

I was planning on applying, but I'm not eligible because I have a previous student loan that had been in default I'm not sure if that renders me ineligible for loan repayment as well, but I guess probably yes

Why would your GPA hurt you?

Jm976711 that is definitely a strong GPA, you should apply. I also found out it is first come/first serve to access the webinar. I will be on it tonight! Hope to get a lot of questions answered. Especially ones pertaining to entering the start/end dates for respective programs.
