Nurse Corps Scholarship 2018-2019

[DomoniqueH]

Hi Everyone, I'm planning to apply for the HRSA NurseCorp Scholarship this year. I figured I would go ahead and start the next thread for this award year. I'm currently finishing up some of my prereqs and will be starting my BSN program in June. I know the application date hasn't been released yet but from what I have seen on other threads, it should be opened sometime in March/April with a deadline in May. I've also read that the prompt questions have been the same from one award year to the next so I have begun working on them as well as trying to figure out who I would like to use as recommendations. I would love to hear from all who plan to apply this year.

Just curious-

But what are everyone's plans to pay for school if they do not get the scholarship?

GPA: 3.93

EFC: 0

If I don't get the scholarship (God forbid), I'm applying for a personal loan. Finger crossed if won't come to that.

If all else fails, i'll utilize the tuition reimbursement option offered by my job. There is only a six month commitment in exchange, but still..this scholarship is an offer one just can't refuse! It would certainly be nice!

Where are you logging on to see if you are "under review" or what your status is? I log on to HRSA.gov and still can't seem to find it. I only get my application ID. No status.

[NurseVeee, BSN, RN]

What program did you apply to? I applied to the scholarship program and mine just says "under review".

Your best bet is calling them in the morning. But, I think that means your application was not completed fully and not submitted for review.
