  1. Nurse Corps Scholarship 2017-2018

    Hi @zeenurse100! I contacted my school's fiscal services department, and they told me to send them my award letter, and that they would bill HRSA using that. Not sure how the nitty gritty works, but I just did as I was told haha
  2. Nurse Corps Scholarship 2017-2018

    I called - they can't give you any new information about your application. If someone from the govt signed your contract (check in the application portal), it sounds like that's a pretty good indicator that you will get the scholarship. However, noth...
  3. Nurse Corps Scholarship 2017-2018

    I too just got my official welcome email today! My timeline: Submitted application several days before the May deadline (can't recall exactly when) 8/11: received finalist email 8/13: submitted all documents Circa 8/15: double-checked the uploaded do...
  4. Nurse Corps Scholarship 2017-2018

    I called the help line about getting that email about the conference calls, but not getting a final award email. The woman at the help center said that they sent the email about the conference calls out to all of the finalists, and made it sound like...

    Right there with you! I'm glad I'm not the only one. I'm considering calling for clarification if I don't get a confirmation email within the next 24 hours.
  6. Nurse Corps Scholarship 2017-2018

    I got the finalist email on 8/11, submitted all documents by 8/15, and my contract was signed yesterday! No email or anything - I logged into the portal and viewed my contract, and a new signature had been added. Still waiting on a participant email....
  7. UW ABSN Summer 2017

    As another member of the current ABSN cohort (Emily B., to "out" myself - haha), I would like to respond to jn123's post about their negative experience. With respect to the opinion of the poster, I feel that introducing the topic as a serious concer...
  8. Nurse Corps Scholarship 2017-2018

    Sorry I didn't answer your question! I would say you should put 5/31/19 for the Year 2 End Date - both of the representatives told me to put the end date of my program in that box, not the end date of the full year of funding.
  9. Nurse Corps Scholarship 2017-2018

    Ok... now I am doubting that guy's info about the GPA. I just called again to confirm, and the woman told me I should put the GPA for the last PROGRAM I completed (that is, degree-earning - NOT just part time prerequisite courses). That aligns more c...
  10. Nurse Corps Scholarship 2017-2018

    @Future Ms.NP that does make sense - thanks so much!! I called this morning to ask a couple other questions and double-checked on this as well to be sure they're consistent on their end. FYI, I called at 8am PST on a Monday and I got connected to som...
  11. Nurse Corps Scholarship 2017-2018

    Ugh, 1 hour wait?? That sounds awful, thanks so much for getting the deets and passing the info on! Yeah that makes sense to me, looking at the "Degree Information" tab of the application. Another question that you may or may not be able to answer: ...
  12. Nurse Corps Scholarship 2017-2018

    Hi everyone! Question: I am starting a 15-month ABSN program on June 19th, but the application states that "start date must be after July 1" - so do I just put 7/1/17 as the program start date? I'm planning on just calling HRSA on Monday to get an o...
  13. UW ABSN Summer 2017

    Yay! I think I just accepted the request - group is called UW ABSN 2017-2018 for anyone who wants to get in on this. @Freckles2316 I think I read on the UW website that the HIV/AIDS cert. is good for lifetime, but I don't remember exactly where that...

    @bayareagal, I haven't seen a FB group yet - shall we start one?? I'm moving from Santa Barbara and would likewise love to coordinate/share tips about housing.

    I realized that's the link for the scholarship program only - here's the one for the loan repayment program, too: https://bhw.hrsa.gov/sites/default/files/bhw/APG_FY2017_Nurse_Corps_LRP_Final-508C.pdf
