SergioPA Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Should I be worried that I did not put my discipline or the last 4 digits of my SSN on all my supporting documentation? I barely read that on the NHSC site and I already submitted my application Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I barely read that on the NHSC site and I already submitted my application Hey, after reading your post, I realized that I made that mistake as well. I found it misleading that the documents the NHSC Scholarship generated for you (like the Verification of Good Standing) didn’t have a section to put your discipline. They only asked for full name and SSN. I’m hoping that as long as your first and last name was on all documents, everything will be okay. At this point it’s too late to fix it. And idk if calling their help line would do any good? I’ve called before for a separate question, and never got a concrete answer since responders are reading from a manual. I guess let’s just hope for the best? *sighs* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jukebox Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 If it helps, I asked if it was necessary for me to to resubmit all documents with the last 4 of SSN, name and discipline during the Q & A when I realized that my first ref. letter did not contain that info.; the response was that it was not an issue. However, I did make sure to place that info on each essay. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anybody and any experience with this situation? @lschwart10 I also had this issue and was unable to resolve it prior to submitting. SO FRUSTRATING. Any idea if there's a way to do this post-hoc?

pengwen Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Thought I would share this post from the SDN for anyone who is curious about the next steps Dates may vary between application cycles. Wishing everyone the best of luck!! Fingers crossed that there's a strong PA representation amongst award recipients this year 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaimeC Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Hey everyone! When the time comes, do we know if everyone gets a credit check, or is it sort of like a first round of cuts? So anxious! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
han2018 Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Hey all! Received my credit check yesterday and was alerted by my creditkarma account. Fingers crossed for everyone! Please post if anyone gets a finalist email Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pengwen Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I know it’s not a guarantee, but I literally started crying when I saw the credit check. Pro tip- I had to create an account with credit karma to see it because it didn’t show up on Experian. Sending out positive vibes to everyone!!

JohnnyLAX9 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 How can you tell if you have your credit checked on CreditKarma? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if you log in, on the home page click credit, and it will show you your trans union credit score, but you can also click to see your equifax credit score. If you scroll down to see the factors affecting your credit score, one of the categories is “hard inquiries”. If you click here, it should show you if you have a hard inquiry from “Credco”. Good luck! Edited July 17, 2019 by JaimeC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest thatgirlonabike Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 (edited) Mine has not been checked. I was one of the people who forgot to put my name and SS number on top of all of my documents so let that be a warning for everyone next year!! I have years of relative experience working with underserved communities so I feel like I would have made it through the initial screening if I hadn't messed this part up.

pahopeful46 Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 So at this point if our credit has not been checked do we assume we are not being considered at all? I also forgot my name and SS on top of my documents so I really hope that is not the reason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAdreamzzz Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 I received my credit check from Credco on 7/15/19. I did not put my SSN and discipline on all of the supporting documents, but still got the 1st round credit check. Don’t lose hope! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemeinschaftsgefuhl Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 My credit check went through *fingers crossed with y'all* My credit is kind of atrocious right now...but I am hoping that proves my financial hardship and has them take pity on this poor PA student trying to turn his life around.

PAdreamzzz Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 I received my finalist email on 8/6 at 5pm as well. And I would say it's more than okay to be optimistic about this next step in the process Good luck everyone 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pengwen Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Congrats for everyone how received a finalist email! I think you can feel pretty optimistic that the contracts will be countersigned Historically, a 2nd round of finalists get notified a week after the 1st round so try to keep your chin-up up if you haven't heard back yet! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
