The HRSA nursing scholarship is available now. I just submitted my application although I'm probably a long shot.
How to Apply for a Scholarship
If you're interested in pursuing a career in healthcare, you may be eligible for a scholarship through the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). The HRSA Scholarship Program is designed to support students in various healthcare disciplines who are committed to serving underserved communities and helping to address the shortage of healthcare professionals in those areas.
HRSA offer scholarships to help pay for health professions' education.
All Scholarship awardees will provide a one-year service commitment for each year of scholarship support received.
The application cycle typically opens in late Winter or early Spring and closes in late Spring or early Summer, so be sure to check the website regularly for updates.
Scholarship requirements:
To be eligible for the HRSA Scholarship, you must be enrolled or accepted for enrollment in an accredited program that leads to a degree in one of the following disciplines:
Nursing (including RN, ADN, BSN, and graduate-level nursing programs)
Nurse Practitioner
Certified Nurse-Midwife
You must also be a U.S. citizen, a national, or permanent resident.
Have no federal judgment liens and service commitment.
If you meet the eligibility criteria, you can apply for scholarship through the HRSA's online application system.
Scholarship award covers:
Tuition and Eligible Fees
A monthly stipend for living expenses
An annual other reasonable costs payment
If you have any questions about the program or the application process, the HRSA offers resources and support to help guide you through the process. Don't miss out on the opportunity to receive financial assistance while pursuing your dream of a career in healthcare and serving those in need.
I havent been able to modify my info for a while now, the last time I checked was like 3 weeks ago. And I checked again today and still can't. Do they really check your credit, where is that in the information page. I am so lost, and I so want this day to be over so I can know if people recieved their emails!!!!
I feel like I don't want to even check my email 2morrow. If i don't get it, i have some major thinking to do. As a single parent, I don't think I can survive without. I tear up just thinking about what I am going to do. I love my son, I need to be better prepared for life for him. I need to finish nursing school.
So since I did not recieve any email that means I wont recieve anything?:hdvwl:[/quot
I wouldn't give up quite yet..no one really knows whats going on and who is getting the scholarship...who knows if anyone will even get an email tomorrow.

That is my feeling. I can already taste the bitter email that will read, dear applicants, due to the high volume of applications this year, we will not be able to extend any scholarships at this time. Awardees will be notified via usps mail no later than september 30 2010, just my opinion:eek:
