Where is the best place to find legit scholarships and grants for nursing school?


i am in NEEEEEEEEEEDDDDD of scholarship money! i dont have enough to get through school. i already got a pell grant. i live in Mississippi. anyone know of some good scholarships?

First of all check with your parents places of employment and yours (if you have a job). You can also check with local organizations. Also, talk to your financial advisor he could help tell you where to look for your area. Try nursing organizations. (like the american nurses association). The average nurse is 45 yrs old. With the baby boomers aging, there are more in need of healthcare, along with most of the nurses being a boomer. This is causing the cost of nursing school to raise. In PA we have a loan forgiveness program for nursing majors. Naturally, they have to graduate and work for 1 yr as a nurse or nurse educator before they can receive it, but the state will pay back up to 25% of the debt (not exceeding $12,500) if Mississippi has something like this it might make you a little more comfortable with taking some extra loans if at all possible.
Good luck.

You can also check directly with your school's financial aid office. There are usually scholarship listings for that area. Report It
