Scholarship Program

Our Student Scholarship Program encourages entrance into the health care profession by providing financial assistance to students in their final year of education, in courses related to
a degree or approved health care program.

• Students completing their final year may be awarded a scholarship for that year (Maximum: $3,000).
• Recipients are automatically eligible for part-time externship positions during their final school year.
• Recipients agree to work full-time for a period of one year or part-time for a period of two years with employment beginning 30 days after graduation.
• Candidate selection is based on a variety of factors combining scholastic record, leadership potential and letters of recommendation.

 Northside Scholars Leadership Development Program

• Northside feels that it essential to teach and lead today's students, who will become tomorrow's nurses. The Northside Scholars Leadership Development Program was created to provide scholarship opportunity for high-performing nursing students. Applicants are rising junior or senior students in their nursing program. The program seeks high-achieving, well-rounded individuals who will help further the hospital's commitment to being a center of excellence in providing high-quality health care. Up to twelve students can be chosen each year, and each participant is matched with a manager mentor, who is assigned to the student and provides guidance during their remaining years in school and when they join Northside as a staff RN. Each Scholar participates in a customized job shadowing program and they rotate through different clinical services. Upon graduation and successful completion of the nursing boards, the Scholar is placed into a formal internship program and has a two year work commitment to the hospital. Current Northside employees are not eligible for the program.

  Extern Program

  Northside's paid extern program provides Nursing students who have completed their Junior year with an opportunity to gain hands-on clinical experience. Externs are assigned to a specific unit and perform tech functions under the direction of an RN. Flexible scheduling allows the extern to obtain "real world" experience while keeping school the top priority. After graduation and successful completion of the nursing boards, externs have priority placement into a formal internship program.
