School of Nursing Conway Scholarship

Hi everyone,

For those that applied for Spring BSN and MSN-E, did you already hear back about the Conway Scholarship? If you received the scholarship, could you please share your stats ? Also, for anyone who applied before, could you share insight on what theyre really looking for in applications ? Thank you !!

I didn’t apply but inquired Fall26. I learned after, that’s only about 8 students get the scholarship. This doesn’t answer your questions but I think it’s good info to know bc I thought there were a lot more than 8 being distributed lol. Good luck!!

Wow? Only 8 students get the scholarship? They encourage applying and that’s all given out! That forces students into getting more debt, yes, there are private scholarships, but award more students.

Wow, what happened to the conway scholarship? I went for my RN-BSN and finished in 2024. I received the conway scholarship fairly easily and so did many of my classmates back then.

It did seem like many BSN students won an award. The MSN is more expensive and all of its students already have a bachelors degree though.

Applied for spring BSN, I called and checked their website and apparently the application is still open until further notice because they didn’t get enough applicants. Not sure when we’ll hear back :/
