Virginia Nursing Scholarship Programs provide scholarships for students enrolled in nursing education programs to become registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing aides and who agree to serve in a medically underserved area of Virginia upon graduation. Recipients must agree to a service contract of one year of service per year of scholarship received.
Eligible nursing fields include:
- Registered nurse
- Licensed practical nurse
- Certified nursing aide
Applicants must have a cumulative GPA of 2.5 and demonstrate financial need.
The maximum scholarship award for CNAs is $1,000 and up to $2,000 for LPNs and RNs.
The amount of each scholarship award is dependent upon the amount of funds appropriated by the Virginia General Assembly and the number of qualified applicants.
