Hello everyone. I'm currently enrolled in the FSU nursing program and will begin the program in the Fall. I'm looking at various scholarships and I found one from MHS for $6,000. In order to qualify for this scholarship you have to sign a contract for a one-year work commitment upon graduation and licensure. I was just wondering if anyone has been granted this scholarship before and is/was working for MHS. Would anyone recommend me signing this contract? I guess, in other words, is MHS a good enough hospital to work at for a year. Thanks!

Do you know if the scholarship will cover an out of state nursing school? I wouldn't mind applying and i've heard that MHS is a great hospital to work for. Thanks.
I believe one of the qualifications is that you had to have graduated from a nursing school in Florida, but here is the link to the scholarship.
