Does anyone have any input r/t financing CRNA school with a contract from a group or hospital?

I live in Ohio and some of the hospitals do finance your school but you have to stay with them for certain period of time.

I have been looking into this the last month and have found very little info. I e-mailed a lot of anesthesia groups and received no responses. UNC has a good program but it is only for people who start school in the Fall. I get the impression that loan reimbursement programs are much more common. I heard a CRNA who was an anesthesia consultant say that the stipend contracts are usually more favorable to the employers and should thus be avoided.

Maximus - was that UNC Charlotte or Greensb. ?

I talked to the lead CRNA at UNC Chapel Hill. I think that the stipend program may be the same program throughout the UNC system though. If I remember right, they pay up to 25K and provide a stipend. Here is their website.
