Advanced Nurse Education Traineeships
A limited number of Advanced Nurse Education Traineeships from the Division of Nursing, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), and Public Health Service (PHS), are available to graduate students through the College. The traineeship usually pays tuition while the student is enrolled full time in a graduate program in the College or enrolled part time during the final year of study.
