National Health Services Corps (NHSC) Scholarship Program

The NHSC Scholarship Program is a program established to bring health care to areas of the country, which have critical health professional shortages. Tuition, fees, and a monthly stipend are paid in exchange for service obligation. Each year of support incurs a year of service. Breach of the service obligation would incur substantial financial penalties. For more information on the scholarship, go to: http://nhsc.hrsa.gov/scholarships/overview/index.html.
