09-10 hrsa nursing scholarship

Published

Hello all,

I'm starting this thread for the new applicants for the hrsa nursing scholarship 09-10. Tor prettylady, I think its a random selection. Its the luck of the draw.

Specializes in PICU, OB/GYN.

Yeah, the person I spoke with was incredibly rude as well. I just don't understand why people that don't like interacting with the public work in call centers.

I wish I also knew the selection criteria, I mean, what are they going to know 2 days from now, that they don't know today?

What if you have already taken a loan out, then how do they pay for you tuition if its already been paid for by loan.

The school cuts you a check for the excess amount. You can use it to pay back the loan you took out, or for whatever you need.

I'm kind of confused. When I received my finalist e-mail, it stated that if you are chosen, you will be notified via mail. So I began running to the mailbox each day instead of checking my e-mail twenty times a day. I mean I'm still checking my e-mail multiple times a day but I expected the notification to come in the mail since that's what the letter stated. Anyone else get this feeling from the letter.

Specializes in mental health.

the selection process is totally random from the 'first preference' category. they even award everyone in that category to be able to go on to second preference. it basically comes down to that 0 EFC. at this point, its totally random. the rude girl at the call center told me emails are sent but regular mail is the official notification. i guess theres a chance that they missed the email but could send a reg. mail. i wish there was a way they could just tell us on the phone if we got it or not (after the 30th). oh well. 1.5 more days of nail biting...

I heard that they are going to mail out the letters tomorrow and we should know within a week. Hope this gives you all some hope.

Can anyone log in to the HRSA website? I saved the link but when I pull it up, my browser gives me an error message. It doesn't even take me to the HRSA website. Does this mean selections have been made?

I can't login to the site they give but I can to the correct one. It doesnt matter either way. They will send letters out tomorrow per the call center. Please do not call them and ask again though. They are overwhelmed and this information is from them.
