I haven't contacted any hospitals re: scholarships yet, I'm still (IMPATIENTLY) waiting on an acceptance/rejection letter. LOL

You might also want to check out the scholarship offered by http://www.msnurses.org/ (Mississippi Nurses Association)
You can also look at the scholarships page on my website (http://www.nursingstudy.com/cgi-bin/csvread.pl) ... there are lots of scholarships listed there that you may be eligible for.0Feb 15, '04 by LindseyLou2222Whitfield in Jackson offers a very decent package, if you dont mind working for them.0Feb 24, '04 by bsmith0874Finally! A place to get some answers! I'm thirty and presently teaching school. I begin nursing school in August at HCC. I am very nervous about paying for everything-not only school, bills, etc..., but medical benefits (i'm not married). I am sooooo excited about pursuing nursing and am not naive that it will be a lot of hard work, but I was hoping someone, somewhere would be willing to help. Whitfield? What is that like? Any input would be much appreciated!

I didn't find it hard to work there at all. In fact, the last year I worked there, I was a supervisor.0Feb 26, '04 by bsmith0874Thanks so much for responding. The offer sounds too good to be true. What was the salary like? How long ago did you work there? Did you work there at all while attending school? Did it take you four years to reimburse them or did you choose to stay that long?
Thanks a bunch,
Beth
