As the new academic year approaches, summer is a great time to research scholarships and apply. Scholarships are a practical funding resource, applying is not time consuming, and you may be surprised by what you get.
Why lose out on extra money that can lower your tuition costs?
Some tips on applying to NYUCN and outside scholarships:
1) Be proactive and self-advocate! Don’t be afraid to ask about scholarships.
2) Be your “own” researcher! For example, set up a Google alert on nursing scholarships.
3) Join a professional nursing group and apply to scholarships through the organization (examples include: NSNA - National Student Nurse Association or NAHN - National Association of Hispanic Nurses).
4) Update your resume frequently. Your resume helps to tell your professional story and should reflect your current accomplishments and past achievements.
5) Complete the FAFSA every year!
6) Visit the College of Nursing scholarships page for more information.
Don't miss out on these great funding opportunities!
