Hello fellow RN's/APRN's,

Just finished my application for the HRSA Nurse Corp Loan Repayment Program 2023 program! Nervous but excited to see what comes of it, I see that the competition is extreme but it looks like over the past few years they've been given more funding to award! 

Question as well: Does disadvantaged background apply to RN/APRN's applying or only to nurse faculty? I included the form anyway, just in case it helped my case as I am the first in my family to attend college. 

Here are my qualifiers:

FNP-C

Behavioral Health - Pediatrics

DTI <100% - Just at 0.95%  (This is the total qualifying education loan balance divided by base annual salary)  

HPSA Score: 13 

Best of luck everyone!

I got an email from them to turn in estimated payoff amount for each of my loans. 

Had you turned it in already when you submitted your application? Did you check and see if you had a credit check on Experian?

Yes it was turned it with the application previously, and my credit was pulled as well. They replied again saying they have forwarded my application to the final review. I pray this is good news!

Fingers crossed for you! Out of curiosity, what are your DTI and site score?

Thanks. I am not sure what my DTI score is, not sure how to calculate it, but my site score is 20.

Debt to Income is calculated by how much do you owe in total for student loans divided by how much you make in a year. If you owe more in student loans than you make in a year that places you in the higher tier for consideration

I'm just curious if anyone has had any updates about being a finalist for the program? I was kind of expecting middle to end of June for people to start being notified based on previous years. Although, I know this years application was later too.

Also waiting to hear! Credit check back in April and hoping to not wait all the way until September. I've been wondering if they check everyone's credit or if that's at least a first step in the direction of acceptance. Overthinking over here haha. Good luck everyone! 

RN, debt to income >100% and site score of 16.
