I applied for the 2009 NELRP. I did not expect to hear from HRSA until September (IF I received an award). However, I was contacted by HRSA yesterday (June 15, 2009). They asked me to obtain pay off information for a few of my loans --- they had been unsuccessful with getting the info for those loans on their own, but did get the pay off amounts on other loans.
I asked the HRSA representative if this was a "good sign" and she responded that she could not confirm funding, but I am a "first funding preference" and "within range" (I think most who apply are "within range").
Questions: Has anyone else heard from HRSA this early?
Nothing here! Congrats to rzacharr, ACCB, and Rachel 51207. I wish Monday would hurry up. I'll be stalking the mail lady now through the end of September.
Oh my god!!! I got the award letter. It must've been in the mail yesterday!!! Just when i thought i was about to have a bad day!! I got into my car to go to church and it wouldn't start. I decided to get online and check this forum because i hadn't gotten a chance in a while and i saw the posts about others getting letters. I said to myself...let me check my mail...and there it was!!!! I immediately fell to my knees thanking god!!! My lord and saviour!!!! He may not come when you want him...but it is a testament in my life that he always comes on time...thank you jesus and good luck to everyone else!!!!
Just checked the mail.......Nothing.....Bummer!! We signed the contracts on 8/6 and our hospital is on the list. Keep my fingers crossed!!! Please Lord!!
Well, I am coming to the realization that I will not receive the NELRP this year. I have been "stalking" the HRSA website for new press releases. Have even reread the original press release (my hospital is not on there). I was originally encouraged by the "First 100" in the artice. However, upon reexamining it, I am beginning to wonder if it truly means "First 100" THIS YEAR -or- "First 100" UNDER THE AMERICAN RECOVERY ACT (as in, the first ones to be funded under the act for --- as in, the only ones this year). Aaargh!
Question for thoe of you that received the award letter: are you RNs or Advanced Practice RNs (MSN, CRNA, CRNP, etc.)?
