Nurse corps loan repayment

Published

Specializes in NICU, neonates, newborns.

Does anyone know what criteria makes an applicant more likely to be selected for the nurse corps loan repayment program?

I applied today, just a few hours before the deadline. What kind of candidates do they look for? Previous posts mention HPSA scores and debt to income ratio. Do they pick people with lower or higher DTI? Do your transcripts and resumes have impact as well? I’m just trying to get an idea of what my chances are.

Also- is there any way to find out my hospital’s (a DSH) HPSA score online? I tried calling to find out earlier today but hung up after being on hold for almost 30mins.

thanks!
