Kbelle25 Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Hey guys, I just wanted to get this thread started since according to last years timeline the applications opened in about a month from now! I know that the 2022-23 application cycle has not happened yet, but does anyone know why online it says that the 2022 application is closed if it hasn't even opened yet? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuiteContrary Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 So I tried to make an account on the portal but I haven't gotten my confirmation email yet so I cannot login. Anyone else having this issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else having this issue? I had this same issue and called a representative to inquire and learned the following: If you registered with a Yahoo e-mail, this is a fairly common issue (mine took a few hours to come through). The same thing happened to me when I created an account using my Gmail e=mail and the representative ended up rectifying the issue for me fairly easily. I do think it will eventually come through, but it might take a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VarsityMed Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 I made an account this morning and got my email right away. There is a notice on the site that some elements may be running slowly through 3/17 so that could explain it as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuiteContrary Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Found it! It went to my spam :(. So on the information PDF it says last year everyone that was eligible got the scholarship?? What does this mean? I thought this was super competitive... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VarsityMed Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Not sure where you're seeing that, but this is taken from the Application and Program Guide PDF: Quote Anticipated Awards The NHSC SP expects the fiscal year (FY) 2022 application cycle to be very competitive. The program anticipates more applicants for scholarship awards than there are funds available. In the past, SP funds have been sufficient to fund approximately 10% of the applications received for new awards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AspPAS Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Is anybody else not able to find the Verification of Acceptance Form once they begin the application? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pawrote Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Does anyone know if I can somehow bypass the letter of recommendation needed from my previous academic program? I graduated from my last program in 2015, and the faculty I worked with there no longer work there. I took all of my prerequisites online for PA school. I'm struggling to figure out what to do. Anyone have any tips or advice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone have any tips or advice? I'm not really sure. I think your best bet would be to contact the number on the program guidance booklet. Maybe you can still receive a letter of rec from the faculty and just have them explain they no longer work at that institution? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AspPAS Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 Hey all! My program starts late September, before the 30th. I called the scholarship program and they recommended I put a start date of July 2nd on the application. However, when my school fills out the Verification of Enrollment, they will most likely put the actual start date (September). Wouldn't this count as information not matching on application and supporting documentation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
