What are the Eligibility Criteria for Government Aid?
Eligibility criteria can vary depending on the type of aid:
- Scholarships: Criteria often include academic performance, financial need, and enrollment in an accredited nursing program. - Grants: Usually based on financial need, as demonstrated through the FAFSA. - Loan Forgiveness: Often requires working in a designated Health Professional Shortage Area (HPSA) or a public service role. Some programs also require a commitment to work for a certain number of years. - Workforce Development: These programs may require you to be a licensed nurse and could include criteria related to your employment status and career goals.
