AfterCollege/AACN Nursing Scholarship Program

The AfterCollege-AACN Scholarship Fund supports students who are seeking a baccalaureate, Master's or doctoral degree in nursing. Special consideration will be given to students in a graduate program with the goal of becoming a nurse educator; students completing an RN-to-BSN or RN-to-MSN program; and those enrolled in an accelerated program. One scholarship in the amount of $2,500 will be awarded each quarter. Nursing scholarship deadlines are March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31. Please note that all applicants must already be enrolled (not just accepted) at an AACN member institution. To check if your school is a member, see AACN Members. Only finalists are contacted and may be asked to submit letters of recommendation, published articles, awards/honors, etc. to the selection committee. Recipients will be announced within one month of each deadline and contacted to redeem the award. Check out this list of past scholarship recipients. Have questions about this scholarship?
