Apply for the 2023 Nurse Corps Scholarship Program. The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) is currently accepting applications through May 4, 2023.

The Nurse Corps Scholarship Program provides financial support to students enrolled in nursing degree programs in exchange for a commitment to serve in high-need areas across the country. The scholarship includes payment of tuition, required fees, other reasonable costs, and a monthly living stipend.

After graduation, scholarship recipients fulfill their service commitment at an approved location with a critical shortage of nurses.

• Up to 20% of awards reserved for nurse practitioners with a specialty in psychiatric mental health.
• Up to $5 million reserved for:
  • Registered nurses with a focus in women's health or obstetrics
  • Nurse practitioners with a focus in women’s health or an obstetrics and gynecological specialization
  • Certified nurse midwives with a focus in improving maternal health outcomes
• Up to $2 million reserved for Career Pathway Health Professionals such as certified nursing assistants, home health aides, medical assistants, licensed practical (vocational) nurses, and other entry-level health professionals.
