Thank you for your interest in the Heart of Healthcare Nursing Scholarship. We regret to inform you that the 2023-2024 Heart of Healthcare Nursing Scholarship application is now closed.

The Heart of Healthcare Nursing Scholarship operates on a cohort-based framework. This means that it is designed to support a particular group or class of students during a specific academic year. Scholarships within this framework are tailored to meet the financial needs of students within that designated cohort.

As a result, we will not be accepting new applications for the upcoming academic year, 2024-2025. Instead, the scholarship will be exclusively available for students who are part of the 2023-2024 cohort designated for that academic year. Please contact your financial aid office with any questions.
