   Did you ever hear back from Chop? I would try calling the nursing recruitment office. I was able to schedule an interview pretty quickly by talking with a nurse recruiter and I am applying from out of state.

   How do you know you didn't get the scholarship? Were you notified that you did not get it? From what I understand you will get your first stipend and back pay stipend money (from the time your semester started thru October) by October 31st. If you h...

    fathertod maybe the school you're attending does not have the accreditation needed for first preference? I'm just guessing here. When you graduate will you have your RN? If not that may be another reason. Call tomorrow if you haven't figured it ou...
