Scholarships & Assistanceships

Scholarships & Assistanceships

The School of Nursing and Health Sciences offers limited awards in the form of scholarships and assistantships. These awards are competitive and based on academic merit. All on-time and complete applicants are automatically considered for these awards at the time of application review. No separate application form is required for consideration of scholarships or assistantships.

If you would like to apply for additional scholarships on your own, please see the information below. Please note that the availability and criteria for scholarships listed below change. It is imperative that you confirm directly with the organizations since Simmons does not have a formal relationship with them and thus does not know when criteria may change.
