KCNA Scholarship

Deadline: Thursday, March 1

KCNA is proud to help ensure the future of nursing in our community by offering scholarships to deserving nursing students who attend school (or have a permanent address) in King County. In May, KCNA will award 12 scholarships of $2500 each to nursing students for the 2012-13 academic year. Three classifications of student are served:

  • basic (those seeking initial licensure as RNs)
  • diploma nurses who are returning to earn Bachelor’s Degrees
  • nurses who are pursuing advanced degrees in nursing or related fields.

To be eligible, the student must attend an accredited nursing school and have a GPA of 3.0 or greater. Scholarships are awarded on the basis of academic performance, community service, and involvement in school or professional activities.

Information and application forms are available on KCNA's Student Nursing page. Don’t need a scholarship? Perhaps you are in a position to donate to help students who do! To donate, visit KCNA's Donate to Scholarships page.
