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.

Well this makes me feel terrible. I keep checking my application and it still only says says "submitted"...I called the call center and she said they were going to send emails if any information was missing. I don't understand why it seems like I have been left behind :( I have an hpsa score of 13 and 143% debt ratio...I am starting to feel very discouraged, this program would be a godsend right now!! I am glad I found this thread though! :) Good luck everyone!!

Hi again all! I got it a week ago--it was just a generic email that said I had an application update that I should log in and check. So as long as you're periodically logging into the BCRS portal, you shouldn't miss anything.

My ratio is about 100% and I am applying as nursing faculty. Best of luck to everyone!!!

ashrn06, Remember, they said it takes months to review everyone and from what I understand, they have to review all applications. 143% is very high ratio so I wouldn't give up just yet;)

Thank you RNeduc8r for the info and congrats:yelclap:

I'm not sure where you are looking? My still says "under review"??????? It sounds like really good news for you.....now I'm all nervous and keep looking......

We are looking at the application itself, not the home page of the portal. Mine says under review, but when I look at my submitted application (you have to download the pdf file) there are 2 additional documents in the supporting documents section: a credit check and "the excluded party list".

Well, sad to say, I don't have any extra documents that say that:rolleyes: It's still early and I hope I hear something.....I'm so happy for the people that have heard....it sounds like GREAT news!!! This seems early so maybe things will go faster this year.

I have been looking at the BCRS portal but did they have a message on there for you? Mine just shows my application??? Your generic message, did it specify that it was from HRSA?

Thank you, I appreciate the encouraging words!! :) I am just keeping track here and wishing everyone the very best! So hard to wait, but so exciting!

This is just a guess, but maybe the "excluded party list" are your loans that weren't approved? When I was reasearching the application, I discovered that some loans can be approved and some can be denied which will change your estimated debt ratio...just a thought!

This whole process is so stressful, why don't they start by those that are not qualified. The wait makes me anxious, at least people could move on.

I agree jpogusta, I'd rather be notified than to just wait. We can't even make a job change or move for fear that we might be awarded and don't want to mess it up! I really hate rushing my life away but I can't hardly wait to find out!!
