I wanted to let everyone know about a nursing education loan repayment program through HRSA (Health Resources and Services Administration). If you are awarded this grant, they will pay back 60% of your student loans in exchange for 2 years working as nursing faculty in an accredited school of nursing. There is also a possibilty for a 3rd year extension and they will pay an aditional 20%. So you could have up to 80% of your student loans paid off!
Follow the link below for more information:

The application cycle is currently closed; however, you can sign up to be notified when the cycle opens next spring.
I applied in April and received the grant in August!
