NELRP is there a thread?

Published

Is there already a thread for RNs waiting to hear about awards from the Nursing Education Loan Repayment Program?

When I search, I can only find previous year's threads.

Can you tell me exactly where you see that your application is under review and where you see the credit check and excluded persons list?

Thanks in advance!

Login, click "view your submitted application", and your credit report and EPL will be listed under the "NELRP supporting documents" header if it has been completed.

So is not having a EPL a bad thing as far as our status is concerned and our chances of getting an award?

I'm pretty sure they have to check everyone's as a part of verifying eligibility, but it seems as though they haven't finished the review process yet.

So the excluded party list is a good thing??? I freaked bc I thought it meant I was an excluded party??

Exluded party list is definitely a good thing. If you don't have it soon it probably means that you didn't qualify for some other reason that they found before they got to the step of EPL and such.

I also think that CRNA's are considered in the nurse practioner group. Especially after what GasMan had posted. It makes sense as well since they are Advanced Practice. I definitely hope they are since I am an RN and have a better chance of getting an award if they are grouped in with the NP's!

I would hope that all APNs are grouped with NPs for the same reason as caleyjo, but I would think that if that were the case, HRSA would state that 50% of funds are reserved for APNs instead of NPs specifically.

I see what you are saying StaceeRN, that is a little weird that they specifically state that its NPs and not APNs.

I just want to confess that I check this website at least 4 times a day for updates to see if anyone has heard anything. I also login to my application although absolutely nothing has changed since the EPL/credit check thing which appeared forever ago. We had a site visit from the state today to our clinic and I had about 5 minutes of downtime the entire day and guess what I did? Yup, checked this site. Going crazy here!

I decided that if we don't hear something this week, I am going to call my lenders on Monday to interrogate them for possible leads...maybe HRSA, too. Somebody's gotta know something!

I GOT IT!!!!

OK, I got an email from hrsa telling me I had an update to my application, and logged in and had to put my banking info in and accept the contract. I know technically it is not final, but it feels pretty darn good, don't have any reason to think it won't go through now. Thank God and good luck to everyone else on here. Maybe you just have to keep whining and complaining like I have been doing the last couple weeks!

Congrats! If you don't mind me asking are you an APN or an RN? And has anyone heard of any RNs hearing anything yet?
