Are you passionate about nursing and want to take it to the next level? Pursuing a nursing degree is an excellent higher education path to explore. In fact, according to US News and World Report, nursing is within the top five most sought-after careers in 2024. With many opportunities and paths to travel down, having a nursing degree can open a world of possibilities for your future.

That being said, attending a nursing program can be quite expensive—but it doesn’t have to be! Many schools provide scholarships for students looking to pursue a career in nursing, making this higher education path much more feasible. 

Today, we wanted to share an extensive list of the top 75 nursing scholarships to apply to in 2024 to help make this path a more cost-effective experience for you. Ready to learn more? Then read on.

The Demand for Nursing Schools

If you’re like many students deciding which career path to take, you may be weighing your options and looking for a career that is in demand and in line with your personal and professional goals. When it comes to nursing, you don’t have to look too far for a steady career path in your future. 

According to the American Hospital Association, the U.S. alone needs more than 200,000 new registered nurses each year to meet increasing healthcare needs and to replace retiring nurses. Additionally, the overall employment in healthcare occupations is projected to grow 15% from 2021 to 2031, much faster than the average for all occupations!

Choosing a Nursing School

When selecting a nursing program, it’s important to not only consider the cost—but also the partnerships the school has with healthcare facilities. Research the student opportunities available. Schools that offer extensive clinical rotations and strong relationships with hospitals or clinics provide the chance for invaluable hands-on experience. This can also be a selling point in your scholarship applications later on, as demonstrating your commitment to gaining practical experience in the field can help set you apart from other applicants.

What Careers Can I Pursue With a Nursing Degree?

When considering nursing, most people often envision a traditional nurse working at a hospital bedside. However, nursing offers many career paths far beyond the conventional image. Nursing students can specialize in pediatrics, geriatrics, and mental health or pursue advanced roles like nurse anesthetists or nurse practitioners. 

Another pathway to consider is a dual-degree program. These unique educational programs combine nursing with related fields such as public health of business administration, preparing you for leadership roles in healthcare. If you’re interested in advancing your career in hospital administration or policy-making, dual degrees can broaden your opportunities. What’s more, highlighting these goals in your scholarship applications can show a clear vision of your long-term career path, which appeals to many scholarship committees.

With the proper education, nurses can also transition into administrative positions, policy-making roles, or education, shaping the future of healthcare. No matter which direction you choose, nursing is a diverse and growing field that offers a lifetime of opportunities. 

Here are some nursing occupations you can explore:

  • Nurse health coach
  • Nurse nutritionist
  • Medical claims analyst
  • Public health nurse
  • Hospice nurse
  • Nurse educator
  • Health services director
  • Home care nurse
  • Medical writer
  • Nurse case manager
  • Nurse midwife
  • Nurse practitioner
  • Emergency room nurse
  • Oncology nurse
  • Nurse anesthetist
  • And more!

Now that we’ve covered some of the different areas you can explore through a nursing degree, it’s time to dive into the top 75 nursing scholarships you can apply for on your path to higher education.
