Inagural Practical Nursing Scholarship

Amount or Range of Each Scholarship:

Eligible students enrolled in CAHE’s inaugural Practical Nursing (PN) cohort may receive an institutional scholarship in an amount necessary to reduce the student’s tuition responsibility to no more than $2,000 per quarter, subject to the eligibility requirements below.

The actual scholarship amount may vary by student and by payment period based on tuition charges, federal and/or state financial aid eligibility, and other applicable financial assistance.

Period of Time Covered by the Scholarship:

The scholarship is awarded by quarter/payment period to eligible students in the inaugural PN cohort who continue to meet all scholarship requirements.

The scholarship may apply both:

• While the PN program is awaiting approval to participate in federal financial aid programs; and
• After federal and/or state financial aid becomes available, subject to adjustment as described below. 

Scholarship eligibility is reviewed for each applicable payment period and is subject to the student’s continued eligibility and availability of institutional resources.

Academic and Award Criteria:

To qualify for and maintain the scholarship, the student must:

• Remain continuously enrolled in the Practical Nursing program.
• Meet all applicable policies published in the Institutional Catalog.
• Remain in good academic standing and meet all applicable Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) requirements.
• Complete all required financial aid documentation and processes.
• Continue to satisfy all other eligibility requirements established for the PN Scholarship.

A student who becomes ineligible under applicable academic, SAP, enrollment, or scholarship requirements may not qualify for the scholarship for the applicable payment period.

Student Eligibility and Student Application Criteria:

To be eligible for the scholarship, the student must:

• Meet and complete all CAHE Admissions requirements.
• Be enrolled in the inaugural Practical Nursing cohort.
• Be a high school graduate or provide evidence of a GED or other recognized equivalent.
• Be a U.S. citizen or eligible non-citizen.
• Complete the 2026–2027 FAFSA and provide all additional documentation required to determine financial aid eligibility.
• Complete all requirements necessary to receive federal financial aid once the PN program becomes eligible to participate in federal financial aid programs.
• Accept all federal student aid for which the student is eligible and that CAHE is permitted to award, including applicable federal grants and federal student loans.

Students are not required to apply for or accept private educational financing as a condition of receiving the PN Scholarship.

Federal and State Financial Aid Adjustments

If federal and/or state financial aid subsequently becomes available for a quarter or payment period for which CAHE previously awarded an institutional PN Scholarship, the newly available financial aid will be applied to the student’s account in accordance with applicable requirements.

CAHE will then adjust or reduce the institutional PN Scholarship previously awarded for that payment period to account for the federal and/or state aid received.

Regardless of the adjustment to the institutional scholarship, an eligible student’s tuition responsibility will not exceed $2,000 for the applicable quarter. If the combination of available financial aid and other assistance reduces the student’s tuition responsibility below $2,000, the student will be responsible for the lower amount.

A student who declines federal aid for which the student is eligible and that CAHE is permitted to award may no longer qualify for the PN Scholarship and may become responsible for additional tuition charges.

Manner in Which Scholarships Are Awarded/Paid to Students

The PN Scholarship will be credited directly to the student’s account for the applicable quarter/payment period.

The scholarship is institutional assistance and is not paid directly to the student.

If federal and/or state financial aid is later received for a payment period in which a PN Scholarship was previously credited, CAHE will recalculate and adjust the institutional scholarship as necessary while maintaining the applicable $2,000 maximum tuition responsibility for an otherwise eligible student.
