It will help if you carefully examine available information on the stipend. Your best chance of achieving your goal can be attained by first understanding the qualifications and making sure you meet them. At the outset figure out the potential motivations of the American Geriatrics Society and what they hope to achieve with the Nascher/Manning Award. Once that is done, you should determine if there is a decent shot of being awarded the stipend. After figuring out that there is a good chance of actually being one of the winners of the Nascher/Manning Award, then it is worth it to use your time.
A crucial aspect in the process of trying for the stipend is paying close attention to the application. Some forms are drawn-out and tiresome, but take the time to make sure that your work was done accurately and without omission. It would be awful to lose out on a technicality.
After filing, you should note when the Nascher/Manning Award confers the award and makes payment of any funds so you'll be aware of whether or not you will be able to count on the stipend to provide additional support for any bills associated with your education and what assistance it will provide, as there may be restrictions on what expenses are covered by the Nascher/Manning Award. Recently it has become more burdensome to find ways to cover the expenses associated with school, and getting the Nascher/Manning Award to assist with your expenses is often invaluable. Even if you don't obtain the Nascher/Manning Award, try not to be upset, you can find different stipends and you may find success elsewhere.
