Loan repayment programs in USA

Published

Hi everyone,

Please can anyone help me with any information on loan repayment programs for international nurses in the USA.

I have heard about Global Scholarship Alliance but they do not pick up their phones nor return their emails.

Most are for US citizens and many include legal permanent residents. Technically an international student on a student visa is not supposed to use loans to pay for education or living expenses. They are supposed to show proof of sufficient income & savings (or an affidavit of support) to cover all school & living expenses. It is expected that an international student will return to their home country post graduation therefore the US loan repayment programs such as HRSA do not apply to non-citizens/PR

Global Scholarship does not appear to be a loan repayment program

Thank you JBN.

Yes, they pay for the education while the person in return works for a few years for them. That is the type of repayment i meant.

That is not loan repayment but tuition reimbursement. Big difference
