Nursing Scholarships
Thanks to our generous donors, the Valentine School of Nursing at Saint Louis University typically awards over $1 million in scholarship funds every academic year. Please follow the steps below to submit your scholarship application to Valentine School of Nursing at SLU.
Scholarship Information
Submitting a FAFSA is highly recommended. Many Valentine School of Nursing scholarships are need-based, and completing the FAFSA will provide essential information that qualifies students for need-based scholarships.
Follow these steps to apply:
- Scholarship applications will be distributed from the School of Nursing to students by April 15.
- Students will have until April 30 to complete an application.
- It is strongly recommended that you complete every question within the general application,
including the questions that aren't designated as required.
- Completing all questions will give the scholarship committee valuable information to determine scholarship award decisions. Students who don't complete every question will still be evaluated but may not be considered competitive applicants.
- When asked if your degree has a concentration, list your program and specialty (if applicable). For example, "Four-year B.S.N." or "M.S.N.-FNP."
- It is strongly recommended that you complete every question within the general application,
including the questions that aren't designated as required.
- Decisions will be made by July1 and students will receive notification of their awards.
Note: Awarded scholarships may not exceed tuition costs. Any scholarship amount over tuition costs will not be given to students in a cash payout.
Student Financial Services
Saint Louis University's Office of Student Financial Services is your most important resource for financial assistance. The office may be reached at 314-977-2350 or sfs@slu.edu.
Student Loan Counseling Service
- Student Loan Tutor: This organization helps you find the least costly repayment plan over the life of your student loans. They are well-versed in income-based payment and public-service loan-forgiveness plans that many nurses qualify for while working in a nonprofit organization.
