Providence Scholars Program

The Providence Scholars Program, a partnership between Providence Health and Services (PH&S) and the University of Portland (UP), was created to address the national nursing shortage. Providence Scholars receive tuition assistance in the final five semesters of their bachelor of science in nursing program (junior and senior years). A UP Grant of 25% coupled with assistance from PH&S gives students tuition coverage of just over 80%. The student will sign a three-year, full-time employment contract with PH&S in exchange for tuition coverage.
