Nurse Corps Scholarship Program

Overview

The Nurse Corps Scholarship Program provides scholarships to nursing students in exchange for a minimum two-year, full-time service commitment (or part-time equivalent) at an eligible health care facility with a critical shortage of nurses. A complete understanding of the commitment to serve at a Critical Shortage Facility and the financial, legal, and other consequences of failing to perform the commitment is critical to successfully completing the mandatory service obligation associated with a Nurse Corps Scholarship award.
