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

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).
I'm just going to stay hopeful past applicant said people were getting notified until the very last day.
Everything checks off on my application I have a -1500 efc, great letters of recommendation, nice statement. I'm wondering what could be wrong, if anything.

How long after responding to the COI do they reply back that you are accepted vs rejected? I am in a DNP program and responded to them this weekend! Hoping for the best 🙂 I also had an SAI in the positive range for those wondering
Congratulations to everyone who's heard back so far and received their COI, happy for you all! I was wondering if anyone who had Summer term has already made payments to their program and if those payments made will get refunded by the scholarship? I called a representative today to ask and she told me that if you took out a loan that will get refunded and payed for, but if it was out of pocket it will not get covered. Is that true to what other people have heard? My fall tuition payment is coming up and I'm still under review. It would be frustrating to pay half of my tuition out of pocket and still have to commit to the 2 year required service afterwards. If anyone has a similar experience let me know!
My status has changed from Accepted Award, Under Final Review -> In Final Review -> Under Review. I'm starting to feel like I didn't get selected as a Recipient.
