I had this issue earlier today and I kept refreshing the page every half an hour or so and it eventually showed up. I also would try looking for the reminder email referencing the financial aid application they sent us. The subject of the email was "Reminder: Columbia Nursing Financial Aid Scholarship Instructions" There was a link there to the application. 

I'd still email them even if it's late - it will show them that you were trying and didn't just forget or didn't want to submit it and possibly (hopefully!) open up the application for you.  

I GOT IT! GD BLESS! 

I love talking to everyone here,

Hi! Do you mind sharing what kind of the scholarship available at the VA? Is it applicable to other branches? Thanks!

 

Its the HPSP scholarship. I believe you incur a 2 year work obligation for every year of the scholarship. In my case I should note I am slated for training (the type with no communication/amenities) from February until May so I won't be able to complete this unless I get an early acceptance. Other than veteran's preference (in the same way as federal employment) in admissions HPSP is open to everybody

Hey all- lurker and fellow applicant here for the 2021 admission cycle. In case you were like me and had one of your recommendations miss the oct 15 deadline, admissions emailed me today to let me know they have until 1159pm on the 22nd to turn them in! 

Just thought I'd pass on the info and hopefully allow a few of us to breathe a sigh of relief. Good luck to you all and hope to meet you guys this Summer!
