The 2008 Applicant Information Bulletin

Posted By aaron on February 27, 2009

While we are pending the approval of the 2009 Applicant Information Bulletin (or AIB for short), we highly recommend that applicants take a look at the 2008 copy of the AIB.

While the AIB is subject to change from year to year, 90% of the information it contains should remain accurate.

The AIB is every aspect of the scholarship program in a nutshell, and we consider it a must-read for potential applicants to the scholarship program.

You can get it here:  2008 NHHSP Application Information Bulletin (AIB)

Please check our site regularly for updates, as the 2009 AIB will be made available as soon as it is approved.
