Nurses corp loan forgiveness

Published

Has anyone applied for Nurses Corp Loan Forgiveness before? I just applied for the 2017 cycle and I have an issue that is bothering me. Here it is...

Do they accept all the loans funded to me towards school? What I really mean is.... I have some federal loans under my name and I also have another larger loan pulled out under my mother's name. My loans alone couldn't help me through school so she helped me out. It's extremely expensive for her considering her income and other responsibilities. I really need help with the loan borrowed under my mother's because it's too overwelling for her and I and are actually larger than the ones under my name. Can someone advise me?

Never heard of it, but I definitely feel your pain ((hugs))

@cola89 Yeah I need that ��. Thank you

It's a federal program that can potentially help nurses with some loans if you work in facilities that have a shortage of nurses and in undeserved communities. You can check it out incase it is somehow useful to you.

Ok, it might be when you work for a not-for-profit facility, I don't know how stringent they are about the 'neediness' of the area. You can get on a payment program that is based on your income level no matter what, I think. And if you work full time for a not-for-profit company as a nurse, then after 10 years of payments (per what they determine for your income level), I think you are done with paying loans. Go on the government website for find out for sure.

As for me, I'm just paying as much as I can, as quick as I can. It's really burdensome. Truly. Cost of living has gone up exponentially, wages have stayed the same since 2002. Employers of nurses still continue to treat us like arbyss workers. No respect, and while it's possible to get full-time hours, too much of the time it's while only working and getting part-time benefits. And this is why the class gap in America is widening...
