The NLN Ella McKinney Scholarship is for graduates of Oregon high schools or Oregon residents who have completed a GED or Home School diploma. Preference is given to students entering their senior year of undergraduate study or final year of graduate study. Eligible applicants must attend an Oregon college with a nursing program accredited by the National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission (NLNAC); students should verify accreditation with their college if unsure. February 15 is the early bird deadline and March 1 is the final deadline for all applications and materials to be submitted to OSAC. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Oregon Office of Student Access and Completion for more information.
