^ that’s still better wrt Pell and federal loans, right?
It looks like the MO public universities I’ve checked so far (semo, Mizzou, kc) only have competitive, secondary admissions to Nursing rather than direct admissions. 
MUST doesn’t seem to have Nursing at all.
OP should talk with their counselor as soon as they get back in the office. If homeless, the McKinney Vento Act should apply and OP would be considered independent for FAFSA. The plus of that is OP would qualify for full Pell. With that and federal student loans, OP’s budget for first year would be around $17K ($7,495 Pell, $5500 first year student loan plus an addt’l 4K for independent students.) Of course OP doesn’t have to take the loans but they would be available.
It looks like Truman State does have direct admissions to Nursing though the program is more selective than the college as a whole (as is common) and requires an extra application.
They also have an Honors Program.
You might be competitive for the Truman Award (full tuition, some extra for room&board)
You’d definitely qualify for a $3,000 automatic scholarship.
They also have an Army Nurse program and ROTC scholarships.
Scroll down to Nursing scholarships
The Army IS NOT a scholarship program. You really have to want to serve - it’s an 8-year commitment as an Army nurse and before that physical training every week while in college plus various other obligations (leadership course, etc).
SLU has direct entry nursing.
SIU has direct entry but like Truman State it’s a two step admission process: first get into SIU, second you have to get into Nursing - and this is done by taking a test.
SIU Carbondale doesn’t charge OOS tuition and its costs are comparable to Truman State’s. Its scholarship offers seem less robust than Truman State’s though.
St Kate’s should be 29k if it’s 63k-34k so as of now that’s the number to beat.
Thankfully no although they are non religious.
Holy canoli that’s a lot of reading lol. You guys are officially honorary family lol
UPDATE
Elmhurst University- scholarship: $20,000
Nebraska Wesleyan University- Shcolarship: $28,000
The University Of Tulsa - Scholarship: $15,000
I deleted 2 schools cuz I didn’t like them ( no nursing/ didn’t automatically give me a spot)
Congratulations 
Do they beat the final net cost at St Kate’s though?
Have you run the NPC on other colleges and do you know your SAI?
Congratulations!! That’s wonderful news.
