HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

Published

I havent seen a thread yet on this year's nurse corps application cycle & my anxiety has made me start one. I'm finishing up my application and should be done with it by today. I know its extremely competitive so honestly I dont think I'll get it but its worth a try! Who else has applied/is applying?

That's what I was thinking as soon as I saw the deadline LOL. I was like oh, they're not playing around this year! I read the thread from last year and right some of those people didn't find out that they were even accepted until September, I hope I won't be biting my nails that long LOL

LOL me either!! I really need it?

Hey guys! So so glad this thread got started. I applied before the 30th of April and have been anxious about this entire waiting process! If we do not hear until September, I guess I will need to get a loan....

does anyone know how many people are accepted each cycle?

Last year, 7000 people applied for a little over 200 scholarships

I spoke with someone from customer service .. she doesn’t know how many people applied this year but it’s always a couple of thousand & about 10-12% get accepted. incase anyone else was wondering

I am so worried that with the COVID-19 pandemic the numbers will change. Also, I spoke to a current participant who said she believed 3,000 people applied last year and about 220 received it.

Oh lord I’m discouraged now

I read in another forum from years past that it’s some random name, doesn’t say HRSA or anything. Silly question but how do we know if it’s checked? Like where are we notified? So sad I should know that. I just get my fico reports through discover.

If you’re signed up for credit monitoring it’ll send a notification when someone checks your credit. In this case it was a hard inquiry and it says charles schwab bank and was checked today. I never heard of this bank a day in my life
