ABSN Children's Nebraska Scholarship

Nebraska needs pediatric nurses – Discover your future at Children’s Nebraska.

Incoming students at Creighton now have an exciting opportunity to pursue their passion for pediatric nursing at Children’s Nebraska. Nurses play a vital role in the health and well-being of our communities, and the need for dedicated pediatric nurses is critical as Nebraska’s population grows.

Creighton University has been awarded funding to support students in Omaha's 12-month Accelerated BSN (ABSN) program. Students selected for this full-tuition and fees scholarship will commit to a two-year work agreement at Children’s Nebraska, where they’ll have the chance to explore one of 89 pediatric subspecialties—including behavioral health, critical care and beyond—across multiple facilities.

This scholarship is available for students beginning their ABSN journey in Fall 2025, and will be available through 2027.

All scholarships will be awarded after admission to the program, and are contingent on Creighton College of Nursing capacity and stipulations.

Eligibility Requirements:

  • Hold a bachelor's degree in a non-nursing field
  • Meet all prerequisite requirements for Creighton’s ABSN program (Omaha campus)
  • Be admitted to the program before being considered for the scholarship
  • Commit to two years of work at Children's Nebraska in any pediatric specialty post-graduation

If you would like an unofficial transcript evaluation completed to determine which courses meet our prerequisite requirements, please submit unofficial copies of all college transcripts for review here.
