   It looks like the application cycle is also open for those looking to sign on for the third year. I'm in the same boat as above, I started tucking the excess payment away with the intention of making a lump sum payoff of one of my loans. I tried the ...

   ART_RN replied to ART_RN's topic in Ambulatory

   Thanks for your response. FQHC is Federally Qualified Health Center. I took a look at the cost. Prep materials alone are pretty hefty in cost. At this point, my organization hasn't factored the cert in the pay scale but I'm hoping it may influence f...

   @micahbgibbs - congrats on receiving the award! To me, your plan seems solid. I received my second payment on the 21st and I have a similar strategy. The only difference is that I am focusing on paying the higher interest rate loans first, while pa...
