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.
Got an email from one of the girls who has cf as an analyst...she said she called cf this morning and found out they had a meeting on Friday and decided not to email decisions today and they would be sent snail mail instead...she did not say when though...back to the waiting game I guess
Not surprised in the least. Anyone else talked to CF yet? At this point we are thinking they have made their decisions, if we call to check are we afraid they will take our scholarship away?

You dont have to say your name, and I doubt they would do that...
this is what aw sent us back in july (notified by mail no later than...)..at this point you know they are expecting to be innundated with calls today.
if chosen to receive an nsp award, you will be notified by mail no later than august 23, 2010. initially the award notification date was set for july 31, 2010 but had to be extended due to the high number of applications received.

Oh man! I hate waiting for snail mail. Checking every day for one letter and not getting it sucks hah.
I know that patience is a virtue.... and I definitely have virtues but AAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!! Really? And by snail mail? Has anyone called their analyst or HRSA?
This is so stressful. I am trying to not worry. Give it to God, right? I am in an accelerated program and we are in finals this week too!!! I guess that I am going to try and study. What will be will be.
Good luck new friends. All the best to all of us. I am in for a facebook page too. It would be nice to watch all of you graduate! :)
