Know any hospital that will sponsor me through nursing school?


Know any hospital that will sponsor me through nursing school?

Lots of hospitals and nursing homes will give you some sort of tuition reimbursement benefit if you are an employee. In some cases you might have to be a CNA (certified nursing assistant), in others, they might give it to you if you simply work in the kitchen. For the most part, hospitals and nursing homes are concerned about the much reported nursing shortage, and they see offering this benefit as an investment in their own future.

Also, several years ago, the University of Arizona started a free post-baccalaureate nursing program. If you had a bachelor's degree and a desire to be a nurse (and a competitive academic record), you could do a super-fast second bachelor's degree for free if you promised to work at one of the local hospitals for 5 years. Variations of this program exist through out the US.

If that isn't an option for you, and hospitals in your area don't offer tuition reimbursement, you can still go to school and pay for it with student loans, and when you get out, work at one of hundreds of hospitals that will help you pay off your student loans based on length of employment.

Good luck!

i dont know sorry

Usually to get an institution to sponsor you through any program you need a long-term relationship with them.

This means, you have worked with or for them, at least 5 years. You will also have needed to make your career goals known to them in that amount of time.

In the meanwhile, I would go your local community college, go through their financial aide seminar, and see how much sponsorship you might actually need, or not need.

Many of the people who put on the financial seminars will have a lot of ideas as to how you can get the support you need. Be willing to ask a lot of questions and go in prepared with questions to ask.

A lot of hospitals will provide schooling in an agreement that you work for them for so many years afterwards, as well as working for them while going through the training, schooling program. It realy depends on where you live. Make some phone calls to your local hospitals, they can inform you about any programs they offer and exactly how they work.

i was a nursing major so i know a little about this that may help u...for one apply for federal aid through (fafsa). that is the first and most important thing u will need when u look towards financing your education. most hospitals have programs that may help u due to the nursing shortage in the entire US. Tuition reimbursement is available if u work while ur in school, an example is a nursing assistant.
Also, depending on ur state, there is grants that are relatively easy to get as long as u have good grades. if u are just looking to work as a RN some hospitals will train u as long as u commit to them. one example of this is found in San Antonio TX.
a "sponsor" or money can come in many ways... many ways...you just need to look around explore ur options...

check a local listing in your area on the net and you should be able to find something.
