2019-2020 HRSA Nursing Corps Scholarship

Updated:   Published

I can't seem to find a thread on the latest round of Nurse Corps Applications, So I'll start. My initial point is more of me venting, but guess I'll ask - Should I even continue with my application? The new cycle and FAFSA wants us to use 2017 tax info, but in 2017, I was preparing for school and was employed full-time. Now that I'm collecting pennies and in dire need of assistance, it looks like my EFC is almost 8000. I can rarely work in reality. I'm really disheartened and confused as to why the FAFSA is set up like that.

Is anyone else experiencing this?

Reading back on pervious pages, a lot of people have had issues while being in final review. Looking back some people who were in final review got rejected ? They require two counter signatures and we won't hear back or see a change until the end of September.

what is the countersign?

It’s when the secretary of health and human services sign the application to make it official.

Everyone who got that email yesterday, check your contract to make sure there is countersignature from the secretary of health and human services. It must be signed or the contract is not official.

Your status would change to awarded or participant and you would have a new login. This login would require you to put your social and date of birth in to create. In your contract would be a countersignature from the secretary of health and human services. If she didn't sign it then it's not valid. ? but don't worry people didn't hear back or have countersignatures until late September. They're still picking new finalist and they have to compare who should get the scholarship and who won't.

Hi guys, reading back on the pdf guidance for the nurse corps scholarship it mentions “A credit check will also be performed on each applicant’s behalf. Awards are subject to the availability of funds. Applicant award notifications begin in late August and continue through September 2019.”

I’m hoping that this coming 2 weeks we might find out! Fingers crossed!

Depending on when you got your finalist email, you should have already gotten a credit check.
