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?
This is my first time applying to the scholarship. Since May, I've been waiting for some kind of communication. I went back and read the handbook and I believe it said It would start notifying people within the last week of August to September 30. Looking through this thread and seeing that others have already gotten notification, emails, signatures, and etc as early as the last week of July, was pretty discouraging. There's only 2 weeks left and everyday I'm just waiting. In the beginning I was really confident that I was going to get it, but now that confidence is slowly starting to go away.
Either way, If I don't get the scholarship, I will still work hard to become a nurse in just a few years. That's the goal anyway. ?
