Applying to the National Health Service Corps Loan Repayment Program Just Got Easier!


The National Health Service Corps (NHSC) has just announced new changes to the NHSC Loan Repayment Program (LRP) that will make it easier to apply for participation in the NHSC-LRP. Behavioral and mental health providers, as well as primary care physicians, nurse practitioners, certified nurse-midwives, physician assistants, dentists, and dental hygienists, who currently work or are interested in working in underserved communities, are eligible to apply.

NHSC-LRP provides up to $50,000 in loan repayments for the initial two-year service commitment and participants may be eligible to continue their loan repayment beyond two years if they have unpaid qualifying educational loans and continue to serve at an eligible site.

View the specific changes to NHSC application process.
