Hi Everyone, I'm planning to apply for the HRSA NurseCorp Scholarship this year. I figured I would go ahead and start the next thread for this award year. I'm currently finishing up some of my prereqs and will be starting my BSN program in June. I kn...

I currently got to Kaplan (now renamed Brightwood) for their Patient Care Tech program. It was the only way for me to pursue my CNA at night while working my regular 9 to 5 during the day. My goal is to become an RN but I have two kids ( one which is...

Hi, Im 30 with kids and a spouse. Currently pursuing nursing school and really want to commission into the Navy as a Nurse. I already live in San Diego (one of the big 3 hospital stations) and I grew up in the navy so I’m familiar with the life style...

Wow thx for posting the update. I wonder if the deadline will extend the. B/c it's usually the second week of May but I do t see how they could open it in mid April and close it less than a month later. í ½í¸«

Welp it's March 28th and the application still hasn't opened. I'm assuming it's probably do to the issues the gov't was having with the spending bill and risk of them shutting down. But geez...every day I'm checking ...just hoping it's opened up!

Hi, if you go to their website and look at the Application guidelines, it has the essay prompts in there somewhere. :)

Great to meet you guys! I'm waiting for the next phone conference so I can get clarity on the transcript request. I went to Brightwood College which offers a ADN but I specifically did their PCT diploma program. So it's unclear if I can use those tra...

Hello, I am 30 years old and getting ready to start nursing school. I just found out about the Navy's Nurse Candidate Program. I spoke with a recruiter and he provided some info but I have more questions. If anyone has or is in this program, please l...

I recently finished a Patient Care program at Brightwood (aka Kaplan). I'm considering their LVN program and later applying for my local community college's LVN to RN program to get my ADN. But it kinda seems unnecessary to go the LVN route vs just f...

Im confused. Whats the difference between the NurseCorp Scholarship and the NHSC Scholarship? I thought they were the same.

Do you think not having RECENT volunteer experience hurts one's chances?

How long after the deadline did everyone find out who was awarded?

Had you already done the FAFSA when you had the appointment?

Hi. I'm planning to attend the Ontario campus as well. Either June or August but so far its looking like June. I know that FAFSA can only cover up to $12.5K in loans and the Pell varies. Who else are you guys applying through for student loans? I'm h...

How did you get the book voucher? Was it through the school or FAFSA?

Is it the GPA you have while in your nursing program or your entire college history. For example. Ive been to 3 different schools, didn't do well until I started nursing school. So I'm worried that my GPA from grades dcvd prior to me starting nursing...

Do they look at all of your transcripts or just your current nursing school transcripts?

You had the option to purchase your books on your own? how did you go about this?

Do you remember what kind os math questions/formulas were on the test?

I just got my CNA and Phlebotomy license. My goal is to become an RN but its going to be a long road as I have prereqs still and 2 young kids. Ive recently been toying around with the idea of starting an LVN program in preparation for RN. However, I ...

Actually the Grossmont ROP school is where I'm looking to get my LVN and it cost $4600 so I wouldn't be concerned about a sneaking suspicion especially since my question was about the comparison in jobs not schools.

Wow it was that competitive? I wanna do RN but I'm really over the traditional school format and how long it takes.

Did you ever get in?

I'm planning on applying for this scholarship. Im very very nervous because the application will open right when the deadline to apply for my schools ADN hits. And I cannot afford the ADN without this. I'm considering doing the LVN program as that wi...

I'm going to still apply for the RN and just pray and hope I can make it work financially. California Labor Board of Statistics though shows the average income for a LVN at $51K though. I'm sure its the more seasoned LVNS though too. California - May...
