Check with your local colleges for scholarship opportunities, too! Some facilities and hospitals have scholarships offered by volunteers and alumni groups that will provide employees with scholarships for books and/or tuition in exchange for a commitment to continue to work for the facility as an RN for a certain amount of time. Most of these scholarships require that the employee has worked for the hospital for 6 months to a year, and will often require letters of recommendation from your supervisor. If you work for a hospital or facility, ask about tuition reimbursement and scholarship programs!

Don’t let a lack of money get in the way of your dreams! There are lots of ways to pay for your education, find the one that works for you! Think of the earning potential that you are missing out on every year by NOT being a nurse (or dietician or astronaut, or whatever you want to be!). Add that up year after year and see what you are missing. As Lucille Ball said, “I’d rather regret the things I did, rather than regret the things I did NOT do.”
Your future is waiting! Go get it!
