Apply today for the 2018 NURSE CORPS Scholarship Program!
The NURSE Corps Scholarship Program awards funds to students enrolled in a diploma, associate, baccalaureate, or graduate degree nursing program in exchange for their commitment to serve in high-need, underserved communities. Scholarship support includes payment of tuition, required fees, other reasonable educational costs, and a monthly living stipend.
After completion of graduation/training, recipients can fulfill their service commitment at a number of approved health care facilities currently experiencing a critical shortage of nurses. Each scholar serves for a minimum of two years and receives one year of financial support (up to four years) for each additional year of service.
All awards are subject to federal taxes. Learn more on how the NURSE Corps SP award is taxed by visiting our FAQs or watching our helpful NURSE Corps SP tax withholding webinar.
