Financial aid will cover alot of your school expenses. Fill out that FAFSA early and see what you are eligible for. Get to know the financial aid people at your college. Often they will be able to point you to sources you had not thought of.

Loans are available for study. There are various types to suit all income levels and credit situations.

Nursing schools will often have a list of scholarships available to students

Get a job in a hospital as a CNA, Unit secretary, or in the cafeteria, anywhere they will take you! Pick the hospital with the best tuition reimbursement and tuition payment plan. Many hospitals will pay the tuition of employees who will potentially fill the ranks.

See it there is a "hospital association" in your area. Often local hospitals in an area form an informal group and may offer scholarships and aid.

Check out national nursing and student nursing organizations for funding. Check with your state BON.

Good luck, FInding the money is hard, but it is worth it!
