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.

Yes, they are having issues; it scared me. I received the COI and accepted it on Monday. Prior to me accepting it (I was waiting for my school to send back my Enrollment Verification Form), the portal was down. I called customer service and made them aware of the problem since I only had a few hours left to accept the COI, and they told me the website would be back up in 30-45 mins. I was then able to go in and submit my documents to submit. I had been in Final Review up until midday yesterday, my application got kicked back to Under Review. Now, I've read about this issue that previous finalists had in this forum, and some of them ended up not being awarded. I panicked and called customer care and they told me it was strange because my contract was not rescinded, so they escalated my case and told me to wait 3 to 5 business days for an update. At this point, I was really starting to lose hope, BUT...they resent my COI today and I just wanted to make you all aware that they are having lots of technical difficulties.
My dearest HRSA, don't send me NOTHING unless it's about this specific scholarship- because the way my heart drops every time I see your name as the sender can't possibly be healthy... 🙄😂
Okey-dokey, back to my hourly rounds refreshing my portal 🤞🏽✌🏽
