Deaconess

Anyone here going through Deaconess? I have been looking at the online program and it looks great but it is very expensive :uhoh21: . I make too much money to get a Pell Grant. Are there other financial aide or scholarship programs offered there? Also I work full-time M-F. How many hours of clinical do you have to do? If anyone has any info I would love to hear it.

Thanks,

Sherry

check with your local board of nursing...sometimes they have scholarships and/or grant money if you agree to work in a hospital in the state for so many years...here in cincinnati, ohio we are very close to Kentucky (5mins or so) and the KBON offers 3k for each year you agree to work in the state..it can be any hospital and you dont have to attend school in that state but you do have to be a resident...maybe your BON has something similar...I have also found similar scholarships online by doing a search..Im not positive but check this link out...

I think they offer a scholarship but you will have to kinda look around on the website..its been awhile since I visited it.
