I just submitted my application to the Nurse Corps Scholarship, I just found out about this a few months ago anyone have any advice or tips? I am most worried by my SAI number. It is within the range but its on the upper end more than lower.
Apply to the Nurse Corps Scholarship Program
You are eligible if you:
Are a U.S. citizen (born or naturalized), a national, or a lawful permanent resident
Are an accepted or enrolled student in a nursing degree program at a United States accredited school of nursing
Begin classes no later than September 30
Don't have any federal judgment liens
Don't have an existing service commitment
Aren't overdue on a federal debt
Note: Preference to those who need the most help financially.
Why should you apply?
If you receive an award, you'll get a monthly stipend—and they'll pay your
tuition;
eligible fees;
reasonable costs (includes books, clinical supplies/instruments, and uniforms).
Someone please answer if bankruptcy disqualifies you. I don't want to get my hopes up at all. I did receive a credit check and everything else on my credit report is amazing. and never missed a payment which shows on the report on the 2 credit cards closed from 2022 , but I feel like this would disqualify me and I just want to rip the band aid off now.
From what I've gathered in all the documentations they are solely looking for federal delinquencies (child support, missed student loan payments) I do not believe a bankruptcy would disqualify you. Life happens. & I'd hate to believe that because of someone's past financial hardship they wouldn't grant a scholarship.. fingers crossed! 🤞🏽

Or federally taxes not paid
Thank you for such a kind response. Covid hit hard, so I hope they understand that. Everything else is perfect.
You guys are going to laugh at my SAI (27804) but I've been unemployed since 2022 to go back school ( I mentioned this in application). I know with this SAI number only God can make it happen. LOL

Thanks, they haven't pulled my credit report and I stopped checking so often. I'm just waiting for HRSA final email. My first day of class is on the Monday and I have to focus on that now bc we have a quiz due on that day. If I don't get it, I'll just have to take out private loans.

honestly I'm just putting it all in God's hands. I started school on September 4th. I'm on a payment plan and working hard to make the monthly payment. I still have hope to get the scholarship, but if I don't, I have to keep going. It's been my dream to get into nursing school, and now that I'm here, I'm not going to let a scholarship stop me, and I hope it doesn't stop y'all either. Good luck to you all and can't wait to be working on the field with y'all someday !!!!!

Well, it stopped me because I don't have the money to continue nor do I have enough grant or loan money left and Wednesday was the last day to add dropping because they didn't receive a payment. They told me I had to I couldn't attend anymore so I'll try again for another year or maybe I'll try other scholarships just for the simple fact is I'm going to a different school. I'm just gonna go to tech school and get my degree and I might be a year behind, but I will save so much more money and I'mma get other scholarships because honestly, I want to be able to do what I wanna dowhen I am done with school not be tied to him a critical shortage facility for two years I actually would like to travel nurse and just have my freedom and flexibility. How are you?
