Financial aid for accelerated nursing programs at well-known schools

Published

What is the financial aid like for accelerated nursing programs at well-known schools such as NYU, UPenn, Columbia and Duke?

I know that federal grants are out of the question for second bachelor’s degrees and master’s programs. But, can I expect any substantial institutional grants and/or scholarships at any of them? I was previously eligible for the Pell Grant for my first undergrad degree, to give a baseline of my finances, and for comparison.

I’d ideally like to know this information before I spend hours on applications, and paying hundreds in application fees. It just doesn’t make sense for me to submit an application if finances will be an issue from the get-go. Hoping some of you will share your experiences. 

EDIT: I looks like I may have posted this in the wrong sub-forum. Please feel free to move where necessary to keep things organized.
