I know that tier 2 hasn't typically granted in previous years
Just based off reading some of the allnurses forums a few years back, everyone awarded was Tier 1 with the EFC between the range they list. I haven't seen anyone with a EFC outside the range get awarded but that's not to say it doesn't happen. Some people were between the EFC range and still didn't get awarded. All we can really do is just wait and hope

MSN is tier 1. People last year from all sorts of degrees in Tier 1 were still getting finalist letters until early-mid September. There is still time.
Yes it is getting a little stressful because people are getting finalists emails and I have not received anything. Some are saying they have to let Nurse Corps know if they accept by August 31st but Nurse Corps is saying we will know one way or another by September 30th but it's really nerve wrecking. I'm at the point where I'm like just let me know if I didn't receive it so I won't have to continue worrying

It is annoying and they should fix it so everyone can know before September. Last year, there were some who got the finalist emails around the first and second week of September, and then around the week of the 30th got the participant emails. In addition, last year people also got credit checks on August 25th, but I haven't seen anyone with a credit check on the 25th this year, or maybe they got it but didn't say anything. If anyone received a credit check on the 25th can you check and post.

They need to do better with the application process it takes too long, and most people's programs started already.
