What type of nursing degree program must I be accepted or enrolled in to apply for to the Nursing Scholarship Program?
NSP participants may be enrolled or accepted for enrollment in an accredited associate, collegiate (baccalaureate or graduate level), or diploma school of nursing. See Section 801 of the Public Health Service Act for a full and complete definition of these terms. The educational programs in the school of nursing must be accredited by a national nursing accrediting agency or state approval agency recognized by the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Education. First preference for funding is given to students who have a zero expected family contribution and are enrolled or accepted for enrollment in undergraduate programs as full-time students. Students enrolled in LPN programs, bridge programs, self-paced study programs, dual degree programs and RN to BSN programs are not eligible to apply.
