  1. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    So I called and asked what the counter sign means and she was like “let me check your status” comes back and goes “soo it just says you’re under final review. I don’t see a counter sign on...
  2. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    I think it depends when you put your contract period on your application but I’m not
  3. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    I’m calling tomorrow too and I’ll see if they give me the same answer about it being the “official” meaning. I’ll keep you all
  4. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    Yay! Thank you for sharing that
  5. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    Check out last years forum! They still selected finalist at the end of August after people received their counter signs! There’s still
  6. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    I clicked on my contract and scrolled down and it was under my electronic signature. Thank you! I just clicked on my contract and it's under my electronic signature. I read someone last year had it...
  7. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    Hi everyone, I just wanted to let you know that my contract was countersigned yesterday at 1:49. I know that still doesn't guarantee it, but it's one step closer. I didn't receive any notification, I...

    Grants and scholarships are often referred to as “free monies” by institutions due to the fact that they do not have to be paid
  9. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    Got it, I’ve never been eligible for the free money part even when I had no income and was not anyone’s dependent so I don’t know how that works. Good
  10. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    You still qualify. It’s my second bachelors and I still qualified for a federal loan. The exception is if you have already taken out the full allowable undergraduate amount for the first one....
  11. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    The tuition is taxed not just the stipend. It says it in the guidelines on page 13. It also says that the federal taxes are withheld so I’m assuming they’re withheld upfront and that it’s the...
  12. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    That’s a personal choice. I would think though that the scholarship would be more beneficial than taking out a loan that you have to pay back with interest. You might have higher taxes owed, but...
  13. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    That would depend on your total year income and what tax bracket you fall into federally and then whatever your state takes out. I’m from NJ and I can expect about 25-27% taken out of my income in...
  14. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    Does yours just say “finalist”? I’m pretty sure we’re all at “in final review” and the next thing would be “participant”. Could be wrong- just from what I read in past
  15. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    It just says up through September 30 on the portal. I called yesterday and they do reimburse for the loan if you do end up taking one
  16. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    Congratulations! That’s awesome, good for
  17. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    I’m sorry you’re going through that and feeling that way. If your EFC is 0 you should automatically be considered for a federal loan under the FAFSA that you don’t apply for separately....
  18. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    Mine says under final review. You still have
  19. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    Are you going for your bachelors? I think that’s what it was referred to in the guidance document, in which case I’m right there with ya! I think they did it until the last week of August last
  20. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    Congratulations! Where does it indicate what tier you are
  21. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    I’m assuming since it’s similar or is grant funds that fund the scholarships, that each applicant has to meet the criteria and receives a score in each area. Many people probably score them and...
  22. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    I got my credit check a few days after the finalist email so Im not sure what it means. If you sign up for something like Credit Karma, they notify you if your credit has been checked. It’s free!...
  23. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    I don’t remember exactly what mine was but it was around
  24. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    Congratulations!! Do you remember what contract period you put in your application? For example if you put June 2020 to June 2021, I would imagine they could reimburse for courses that start within...
  25. HRSA Nurse Corps Scholarship 2020-2021

    Does anyone know how to report the award for health insurance purposes? Tax wise it counts as income, but it’s allocated for school expenses. When you apply for healthcare for 2021 you have to...
