2009 Scholarship Information

The College of Health and Social Services offers a large number of scholarships for qualifying students. Our generous donors make it possible to help our students acheive their academic goals and attain their dreams as Health Science, Nursing, or Social Work professionals in life-affirming, rewarding careers.

New Mexico State University has changed the way in which students apply for scholarships. Students no longer will apply for scholarships via the College of Health and Social Services’ scholarship page.
Students must apply via this link: https://nmsu.scholarships.ngwebsolutions.com.
The purpose of this site is:

  1. to give students a timeline for the scholarship process and
  2. to show students the variety of available scholarships offered by the College of Health and Social Services.

If you require additional information, please contact Bob Nosbisch, Educational Outreach Coordinator, in the CHSS Dean’s Office by phone at 575-646-5061 or by email: rnosbisc@nmsu.edu.
