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.
That's funny that you have a BA because last year it seemed that all of the people who were second degree students got rejection letters. Maybe you got lucky and slipped through the cracks somehow.
I have a BA too and I received an email. I don't think you should be thinking why you didn't get an email just yet. Have faith, they may email you. If not, try again next year. That's what I have been telling myself this whole time.

Ditto! I think there are a handful on here that are second degree students who received emails...
My analyst's initials are JJ III. Anyone else have him? I sent him an email and called him but no response. Very frustrated, I just want him to confirm if he received my documents.....THAT"S ALL! I live in NY but going to Florida for nursing.
i still haven't received anything which is starting to worry me .whenever i call the reps act like they know absolutely nothing about when decisions will be made. i am in the first funding pref and live in pa. maybe its alphabetical?

Not me...I'm a second degree student in an Accelerated BSN program, and I got the scholarship last year
