Anybody know how to get free money for np program?

Aside from joining the military, does anybody know of a program that pays for you to become an np, perhaps in exchange for a commitment of you time/service? I live in nj and have to stay local d/t family, etc. I know there are programs like this for the nurse educator tract but I havent heard of any for an np program. My googling has come up with nothing. Any info would be appreciated.

Also at USPHS in form of sign on bonus for commitment.

well... sorry didn't read your post carefully that you said "said from military"

I think USPHS personnels can be deployed as an armed force but it hasn't happened for a long time.
