Eligibility Criteria

To be eligible for the monetary award, the school must:

1. Have a baccalaureate or graduate nursing program approved by an agency acceptable to the United States Secretary of Education.
2. Have Internal Revenue Service tax-exempt status.
3. Have a scholarship fund under the functional control of the school of nursing from which ANCA grants are disbursed to the nursing student(s) as selected by the school.
4. Have been supportive of Army Nurse Corps recruitment.

Applications must be forwarded to ANCA by 1 April of each year. At that time, all applications received will be reviewed by the ANCA Education Committee and selected schools will be notified. A previous grant to a school does not preclude reapplication. The educational institution uses the grant to provide needed financial assistance to a nursing student(s) chosen by the school. ANCA cannot award scholarships directly to students.

ANCA has developed award priorities that schools are asked to consider when selecting a student(s). These priorities focus on students who have or have had a connection with the Active Army, Army National Guard or Army Reserve. These priorities, along with details and a description of the application process are outlined in the ANCA Scholarship Program brochure.
