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 Med-Surg, moderate sedation.

Looks like we're SOL. I saw the same response this morning when I logged in.

I am curious to know how they decide on who receives these scholarships. I think most of us out here are 0 efc. Do we have to have a 720 on our credit score? Do we have to be over or under a certain age? Does our tuition have to be within a certain $ amount? I'll be done with school March 2011 and will seriously consider relocating to another country:yeah:

Hey,

Has anyone heard or received anything?

Everyone chill out. We will be notified by regular mail and they were postmarked yesterday. I imagine by Monday or Tuesday all the letters will have reached their destinations. Just relax, if you hype yourself up and don't get it then you could drop into a depression. Just realize that you will get through school one way or another. If you get it, awesome, if not, thats okay.

They called this morning to verify my account!! I GOT IT!!!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT! I just don't even know what to say! The lady I spoke with said that I will be receiving the documents in the mail soon!!!!! I just can't believe it!!

i just called to see if i could veridy the scholarship too ... and they told me that they coiuldnt give that info over the phone... they told me to check the mail for thte next 2 weeks and if nothing comes to check the email for an email stating u didnt get the scholarship and the reason why you didnt get it... she also told me the last letters went out 2 days ago..... so hopefully good news is on the way !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:smackingf

how did you get them to tell you? i called and the person i spoke with said i should know something in about a week or so

i got pretty much the same response...told me to look for it in about a week or so

They called me this morning, at 6:30. I didn't call them. They called to verify my bank account number and I was told that the awards HAVE been sent out by mail and that my information will be arriving shortly. I don't think they will release any information if you call them, I never got any out of them. Just know that the letters are sent, and perhaps they will call to verify bank account info.

Also- many of the people from the '08 thread received the scholarship, the odds are in your favor, I think many of you will be getting notification soon! Good luck to all! The most giant burden has just been lifted off of my and my fiance's shoulders!

I know it has...I hope I have the same weight lifted. I was trying to look back and see if anyone from 08 got the initial finalist/alternate email but didn't actually get the scholarship...do you know the statistics on that? i hate being so obsessive about this....:banghead:

Congrats misslolalady! Hope myself and others receive the same blessing!

Misslolalady.... Did you get the feeling that they were calling everyone to verify bank info or was there something particular about your bank or app that they needed to check? Also, have you already started your program? Associates or Bachlors? Thanks!
