HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

[chelsea21]

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?

Hey I am applying for the Fall 2021 because I got into UMSON BSN program for Fall 2021. Is this thread relevant to the Fall 2021 scholarship info?? Thanks...!:)

Hey! This thread was for all of us who applied to the scholarship during the last cycle! I’m sure there is valuable information on previous post. Best of luck to you!

Hi, 

I have a question regarding how to file taxes for the nurse corps scholarship when you attend nursing school outside of your permanent residence. Since we are considered "employers" according to the IRS would I need to pay taxes as a "nonresident" in the state that I attend school? If anyone has the same situation any help would be so appreciated. Thanks!

Hi I’m not in the same situation, but I saw this. To clarify, you’re “employed” by HRSA located in Maryland, not the school. I think you’d pay federal taxes on HRSA and then your state of residence tax.

Thanks so much...

I applied as well! I just finished my third term of a PMHNP program.

Hey everyone! In regards to this scholarship, I am thinking of applying to NYU’s ABSN program but for the Spring 2022 cohort because unfortunately their Fall 2021 had passed... Will this scholarship be reposted for the Spring 2022 or do I apply now for this??? 
I am trying to contact them but they’re taking forever

hey! just graduated from NYU’s traditional program today LOL. yeah the scholarship will open up again for march 2022 and close around may-June 2022, so if you begin the program fall 2022 (and if you get this scholarship), you’ll have it for the full 15 months. good luck ! @EdaTheInfermiere

Thank you for the reply and congratulations!! Good for you I’m so glad you made it LOL! 
but wait, what if I want to apply for the Spring 2022 cohort not the Fall 2022... Is this scholarship not provided for the Spring??? ?

[pdjonovic]

it’s awarded every fall, so no it would not cover the Spring semester that you apply for it @EdaTheInfermiere

I am trying to submit my application now and I want to submit 2 non- academic reccommendations. How do I do that?

hey, you can’t. you have to have one academic & one non-academic

@MrsLittleRN You need an official academic recommendation but HOT TIP ALERT you can add additional recommendations as “additional documents.”  Anything else that supports your application (certificates, for example) can also go there.
