MNSA Scholarship Application
Two $500 scholarships are available to nursing students who are members of MNSA/NSNA and will be an undergraduate during the 2008-2009 academic year. The student must show proof of MNSA/NSNA membership (a copy of their card). A letter of reference must also be submitted from a nursing instructor, a dean, or director of your school of nursing. We are looking at the content of the essay, and extracurricular activities in your community relative to the topic. The essay is to be approximately 500 words typed and double spaced.
Topics:
How do you “take the field” as a student nurse now and how do you foresee yourself “taking the field” after graduation.
or
What have your learned as a SNA member that has helped you “tackle” challenges and become a better “player”?
