Application deadline
The School of Nursing will email instructions to all qualified potential applicants early in the spring semester, typically in Feb., regarding how to apply for scholarships for the following academic year. This is the only scholarship application cycle administered by the School of Nursing. The School of Nursing will make award decisions over the course of the spring semester. Recipients will be subsequently notified through the University. Applicants that do not receive an award notification have not been awarded a scholarship for the upcoming academic year.
Incoming Freshman pre-nursing students do not need to apply for School of Nursing scholarships. Confirmation of intent to attend Ball State University the following fall as a pre-nursing major will automatically place a student in the applicant pool for consideration. No additional information or application is necessary.
