Hi Tara, In the next section there is a link to federal grants and loans for nursing education. Have a look at the programs, they could be of interest to you. But also having in ming your tight schedule and the fact that most programs have deadlines and that it is necessary to apply earlier in order to get the money, be prepared that you might not be able to find funding from them in the next two weeks.
