I think you have misundersood what I was saying. To survive I have taken out loans every single term I have been in school> The question which I was responding to was why HRSA was not paying for her tuition. I did not know what other costs she was...

21amarice, I do not know anyone in your situation but I am also not sure why you need to take out student loans still. Is it for books? Have you spoken with your financial aid department? Even if your tuition is still paid through pell grants and oth...

I received the stipend last year. They do not take any taxes out of the stipend, you claim them yourself. You also have to claim your tuition. That wasn't so bad last year but this year I will end up owing money! You will get the entire 1269.00 plus ...

I wondered about the extra funding when I read about it in this post. I already receive the scholarship and they have increasec our monthly stipend from 1234.00 to 1269.00. We have not received our ORC costs yet but they probably increased it also. D...

HRSA deposits money first into your account. It is not right when you receive your award letter but at the end of the month. As far as your school, I have had nothing but trouble. I have taken out student loans to carry me through but they are always...

I believe It was Sept. 15th. I was the first one notified. Everyone else received their notification in a email first, then the letter. I don't know why but the process seems to change every year. I know the wait is the hardest part but I don't think...

my heart goes out to all of you!!! I remember the feeling of waiting. I started my program on a wing and a prayer (9,000 per term) but believed I would receive the scholarship. Hang in there God will answer all of your prayers in his own way and time...

The worst thing about the scholarship program is the wait! I don't know if you will be notified earlier but I would not hold my breath. Watch your mail and your email. I received my notification 1st through the mail, others received an email. Good lu...

If you receive the scholarship your school will send HRSA a invoice for your tuition. They will take your cost of tuition and deduct your pell grant and any grants you may have received. HRSA will pay the remaining balance. Your student loans are not...

If you receive the scholarship you can either keep your loan or return it to your lender. It will not be included as payment on your invoice only your pell grant will count before billing.

I do not know about sending your information to the wrong address but you will not receive any information about your status until you are awarded the scholarship. If you are holding your breath you will be waiting until the end of August to Septembe...

Your financial aid office submits a tuition invoice. your loans are not included but they do deduct your pell grant. You can either keep your loan or return it.

Last year there was a link on the same page as the bulletin but i looked and it is not there this year. Maybe they will post it later. Your best bet is to call and see if they received all of your information. Other than that they will not tell you i...

Hey, I received the scholarship last year. It was totally a gift from God! I go to a private college and the tuition is about 9,000 dollars per term. They pay for everything! Then you receive your monthly stipend and book costs. It really is a gift. ...

I received the scholarship last year. IT IS NOT A SCAM!!!!! It is a great program and a blessing from God if you receive it. The hardest part is waiting to see if you get it. The only reason they want your checking account is so that they can direct ...

Did you change your bank branch? You are not suppose to change your account until after you receive your first stipend. You may want to call and find out what the problem is.
simplelife4me replied to geteducated123's topic in General Students
My understanding is we are suppose to get every month that we spent at least 15 days in school. If you started Aug. 14th you would get that month, sept. and Oct. I started Aug. 20 so I should get Sept. and Oct. plus ORC. It says all of this in the bu...

Did your school already submit an invoice? HRSA is going to pay what your school invoice says. If the school deducted the loans then I would say you don't have anything to worry about. If they did not then your loans will go to your tuition. I think ...
