National Health Service Corps Loan Repayment Program Information
Applications are being accepted through April 5th (7:30 P.M. ET).
"Primary care medical, dental and mental/ behavioral health clinicians can get up to $50,000 to repay their health profession student loans in exchange for a two-year commitment to work at an approved NHSC site in a high-need, underserved area. The payment is free from Federal income tax and is made at the beginning of service so you can more quickly pay down your loans. Approved sites are located across the U.S., in both urban and rural areas."
Follow this link for information about program guidance.
"The NHSC gives priority consideration to eligible applicants whose NHSC-approved site(s) has a HPSA score of 26 to 14, in descending order, until funding is exhausted."
