Thanks for the information. The amount of red tape even finding out how to qualify to apply gave me the feeling it would be a long shot. But, if I'm reading things right, I already live in a shortage area, and there are some facilities in my town that would qualify. I figure worst case scenario, I could work at one of these places and save money by not having to move in the meantime. And best case scenario, if this long shot pays off it will be worth it. I'm not very hopeful, but applying will cost me nothing but time, so why not. Thanks again, and best of luck to you.

Hello, Please forgive me if this has been discussed elsewhere, but I am new at this. I am entering my final year of nursing school. I should have my BSN in May. I am interested in loan repayment programs and came across the Nurse Corps repayment program. I began researching it, but the information overload was too great and I got lost in all the red tape. Is there anyone out there who has gone through the application process and can help streamline things for me? Do I apply now while I am still in school, or do I have to wait to apply until I have started working at a facility in a shortage area? How do I tell if the loans I have are all eligible for repayment (I have some public and some private loans)? I would appreciate any guidance to help cut through the red tape. Thanks for your time.
