CNF prides itself on assisting non-traditional students and scholarship candidates with limited resources who could not complete their education without aid – whether it be for tuition, textbooks, childcare or other expenses. Preference is given to scholarship candidates who are Connecticut residents, who will attend Connecticut schools of nursing, or who have a commitment to practicing nursing in the state of Connecticut.
