Does anyone know of a scholarship which will help me pay my NP tuition in exchange for post graduate service? I am in a PMHNP program and am having trouble balancing paying for a kid in college, husband in college, my tuition, an aging parent and a toddler. I have been doing it but after the first year and moving to take a new job closer to my husband's school things are getting really tight. I don't want to take a break but if I can't find some help I might have to. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Have you talked to your school's financial aid department? I find the scholarships and grants one is most likely to actually get are those that are institution specific or otherwise local because there is a lot less competition. They may also be able to direct you to websites and other scholarships aggregates that other students have had luck with in the past.
Thank you! I was so overwhelmed that I didn't even think of that.
