Nurse Faculty Loan Program

The schools make loans from the fund to students who are enrolled full-time in eligible advanced degree nursing programs with education components that will prepare them to teach.
Loan recipients who complete the nursing education program may cancel up to 85% of the loan in exchange for service as full-time nurse faculty at a school of nursing.
