  3. An application for licensure by examination must be on file, along with payment of fees via Gateway (for official transcript verification).
  4. First-time NCLEX exam taker.
  5. Minimum cumulative GPA of 2.5 (or equivalent academic standing in nursing school), demonstrating readiness for licensure.
  6. Submit one letter of recommendation from the dean of the school of nursing from a faculty member or clinical supervisor attesting to the applicant’s clinical competence and dedication.

Selection Dates:

April 15, 2026

Commitment from Scholarship Recipients:
Schedule and take the NCLEX exam within 90 days of receiving their voucher, ensuring timely licensure.
