National Health Service Corps (NHSC)
The National Health Service Corps offers both a Scholarship Program and a Loan Repayment Program.
The Scholarship Program offers students pursuing primary care careers to receive a scholarship for serving communities in need upon graduation and completion of training. The scholarship pays tuition, fees, other educational costs and provides a living stipend in return for a commitment to work at an NHSC- approved site in a medically underserved community.
The Loan Repayment Program offers primary care medical, dental, and mental and behavioral health providers the opportunity to have their student loans repaid, while earning a competitive salary, in exchange for providing health care in urban, rural, or frontier communities with limited access to care.
