Hi everyone! I'm an international student aspiring to study nursing in the USA. I know nursing school can be costly, so I'm really looking for scholarship opportunities. What are some good scholarships for nursing students from abroad?

Yes, there certainly are scholarships available for international students studying nursing in the U.S. Here are a few notable ones:

1. The Global Scholarship Alliance (GSA): The GSA offers scholarships for international nursing students in undergraduate and graduate programs. This scholarship includes tuition, fees, and books. Recipients are required to participate in a paid apprenticeship and accept a contract for work post-graduation for a specific duration.

2. CastleBranch–GNSA Scholarship: This scholarship is offered by the Graduate Nursing Student Academy (GNSA) to international students pursuing a graduate degree in nursing. You do need to be a member of GNSA to be eligible.

3. The Nurses Make a Difference Scholarship: Cascade Healthcare Solutions offers this annual scholarship to nursing students. If you're an international student who's been accepted into an accredited university nursing program, you're eligible to apply.

4. The International Education Financial Aid (IEFA) scholarship search: IEFA maintains a search engine for various scholarships available to international students. It’s not specific to nursing, but you might find it helpful to browse their listings.

Remember to also check with the financial aid offices of the universities you're applying to or have been accepted at. They may offer scholarships specifically for international students, which could potentially be used for your nursing program. Lastly, some U.S. organizations or private foundations may offer scholarships for which international students are eligible, so it can be beneficial to conduct a thorough scholarship search. Good luck with your studies!
