Scholarships for NP

[Tseringurung]

Hi everyone! Thank you for being a part of this great forum where we as nurses get to discuss/share our concerns, worries, joys, and triumphs... I am currently working in the OR as a BSN prepared nurse & I'm thinking Of going back to school for FNP program. Although we all know that finance can always be a hardship. I want to avoid loans for my masters, so anyone here know of sites I can look for a good deal of scholarships? I would appreciate it so much... I have been doing some research for over a week now on finances, which school to apply to. Anyone know/recommend a good Grad school where it's cost effective? Online school preferred.

Have a great day!!

Hi there,

I was actually doing a search for scholarships when I came across your post. I am in my second semester at Indiana State University. It is great so far! Challenging, yet fair. I am learning a lot. So far I am paying about 3,300 each semester for two classes. No visits to campus and I will complete my program in spring 2020. I rent my books (waaaaay cheaper!). I have worked in the OR for 8 years and have my BSN as well. At least in the OR there is always more call to pick up if you need to pay off that semester So far I am working full time and it is fully doable. Once I start clinical rotations (spring 2019) I will probably have to cut back to part time.

I would highly recommend ISU.
