The 2015 NURSE Corps Scholarship Program application cycle is now open and will close on May 21, 2015 at 7:30p.m. Eastern Time (ET). Please refer to the 2015 Application and Program Guidance for all of the program requirements.

This Program assists students completing their nursing education by paying tuition, fees, other education costs, while providing a monthly living stipend. The program is open to full-time or part-time nursing students accepted or enrolled in diploma, associate, baccalaureate or graduate nursing programs at accredited schools located in the U.S. Upon graduation, scholarship program members fulfill a service commitment at an eligible NURSE Corps site.

The NURSE Corps Scholarship Program continues to be competitive and applicants are encouraged to begin the application process early as on average it takes approximately 3 weeks to complete the application.
