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

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 just got off the phone and they really don't tell you much. They tell you the same thing your portal says, that you're under review. She also said if we don't hear anything by tomorrow that it's safe to assume we are not being awarded this year.
And then some are saying they're sending cois until the 30th so confusing 🤦🏽♂️
I called this morning as well and she wouldn't tell me anything.
I applied to both the Nurse Corp and the NHSC scholarships, both "under review", no credit pulls at all. I'm guessing at this point all the funds are probably ear marked for those who received COIs. 😭 I just wish since they do rolling acceptances, just do rolling denials as well, so we don't sit through this for months and months.
That is not true , they send out award letters until the 30th as long as they have funding.
Well that's not what I was told on the phone. I was told by tomorrow because they have to have all of our information in for possible funding by the 30th. So Thursday is the latest you can get a COI because then they give you until the 30th to get your information in. She said denials start going out on the 30th and for a few days after that.
I just received my email that I got accepted! I will say that I logged on earlier this morning and did not see any update. So I wouldn't use that as a primary way to see if you got an accepted. Good luck to everyone waiting
