Students interested in nursing careers can apply for a scholarship/loan through the N.C. Nurse Scholars Program (NSP) for the 2008-09 academic year at the college information site, CFNC.org. Approximately 400 new awards are expected to be made for the coming year, according to the North Carolina State Education Assistance Authority (NCSEAA), a partner in CFNC.

Established in 1989 in response to the dwindling supply of qualified nurses available across the state, the Nurse Scholars awards are available for undergraduate and graduate nursing students. Undergraduate amounts range from $3,000-$5,000 for registered nursing programs at the associate or bachelor's degree level, while graduate amounts are $3,000-$6,000 for part-time and full-time study.

All recipients must be legal residents of North Carolina for tuition purposes. The scholarship/loans require recipients to practice nursing in North Carolina following completion of the nursing program. Students who do not fulfill the service obligation must repay in cash with 10% interest.

Application deadline for the bachelor's degree program award is February 28, 2008. Deadline for the associate degree program award and the graduate degree program is May 3, 2008.

Selections are made by the North Carolina Nurse Scholars Commission. Undergraduate criteria include: grade point average, leadership potential, and community and/or school organization participation. Criteria for graduate study include: bachelor's degree in nursing, undergraduate grade point average, professional activities/leadership, and experience in the nursing field.

The undergraduate application is available at http://www.CFNC.org/NSP and the application for master's degree students can be found at http://www.CFNC.org/MNSP. For more information visit the website or contact the NCSEAA at 1-800-700-1775, ext. 1 or email information@ncseaa.edu.
