The Nurse Corps Scholarshipapplication must include two letters of recommendation: Academic letter:Should be written by a department chair, faculty advisor, or a faculty member of that academic program who can attest to your qualifications. If you have not begun the training associated with the scholarship, the signed letter should be from the department chair, faculty advisor, or a faculty member of yourmost recent academic program. Non-academic letter:Should be written byan individual who is familiar with yourprofessional, community, and/or civic activities, especially those related to underserved communities and, if applicable, federal pipeline program experience. The recommender can be a current or former employer, community leader, colleague, or anyone who has knowledge of your demonstrated work and/or interest and motivation to provide care to underserved communities. It is your responsibility to ensure both of your recommenders submit their letters before the deadline. You will not be able to submit your application without these two letters. Quick Tips: - Confirm that your recommender received an email with a link to upload their letter. That link will provide them more guidance for their letter.
- Communicate with your recommenders as needed and monitor your application until they submit.
- You can cancel a recommender and replace with a new recommender.
- Review pages 35-37 of the Application and Program Guidance (APG) for more information on letters of recommendation requirements.
