Duke ABSN Just wanted to share this info ... Currently both Duke & UNC hospitals (together covers several hospitals in Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill) offer DUKE ABSN students tuition assistance or loan reimbursement. You have to call the hospital for details (not really available online) but basically Duke- after graduating from the Duke ABSN for every year you work for duke you get $11,000 extra on your 1 yr. mark. Up to 3 years. Duke also has an RN-TAP program & Employee tuition assistance program. RN-TAP is after working for Duke for 1 yr. if you work 30hrs/ week they will pay for 90% of tuition for classes. After working for 2 yrs at Duke you can take advantage of the Employee Tuition Assistance Program. UNC- before you reach the 1/2 way mark of your Duke or UNC ABSN program you must sign a contract with UNC and for every Month you say you will work for them after the Duke or UNC ABSN you get $1,000 a month (I'm not sure if it is up to 2 or 3 yrs) The money is issued in a few months at a time. UNC also has some kind of Employee Tuition Assistance program. Someone from UNC feel free to add! Pros/Cons. BOTH HOSPITALS HAVE TO TAKE OUT TAXES AT SOME POINT! UNC you get the money up front= borrow less =less interest but breaking contract is very bad from my understanding (like 10%+ interest?) Duke take out loans up front = interest, but if you decide at graduation you don't want to work at Duke or want to move after 2 months no loss. I'm not sure if either program forces you to show you have loans ( I don't think they do) More Information and to Apply for the RNTAP: Web: http://www.dukenursing.org DUHS Intranet: http://nursing.dukehospital.org Phone: 919-681-6626 or 919-684-9151Duke University Health System (DUHS) and the Duke University School of Nursing (DUSON) support the continued education and learning of DUHS registered nurses. A highly educated nursing workforce further strengthens the quality of care, clinical outcomes, and translation of nursing research into clinical practice within DUHS. The Registered Nurse Tuition Assistance Program (RNTAP) provides funding either alone or in concert with the Duke Employee Tuition Assistance Program. For eligible registered nurses, RNTAP contributes 90 percent of tuition for study towards a master's degree or post-master's degree certificate at the Duke University School of Nursing. Program Features: *RNTAP application must be approved by the manager and DUHS Nursing Administration prior to the first day of classes. *RNTAP award (minus required tax withholding) is posted to the student's DUSON bill. *Successful completion of the course with a grade of "C" or better (or "Pass") is required to retain the RNTAP payment. If a student fails to successfully complete the course, the RNTAP dollar amount will be deducted from the amount provided for the following semester, or the student will be required to pay back the RNTAP funds for the course in which the student was unsuccessful. *After an award of $2,500 from the RNTAP, staff must work in a benefits-eligible status as a DUHS registered nurse for a period of three consecutive years. An eligible DUHS registered nurse whose employment status drops below a benefits-eligible status, or who terminates for any reason prior to the work repayment period must repay 50% of the amount of RNTAP funds received over $2,500. How it Works: While the source of funding varies based on years of service and semester, the RNTAP helps cover up to 90% of the cost of DUSON tuition for DUHS registered nurses pursuing a graduate degree. Registered nurses with one to two years of continuous service are only eligible for the RNTAP. Registered nurses with two or more years of continuous service are eligible for the RNTAP and the Duke University Employee Tuition Assistance Program. http://www.hr.duke.edu/benefits/educ...stance.htmlFor

I think you are asking about the HRSA Nurse Scholarship Program for people starting or still in school... https://allnurses.com/forums/f50/07-08-hrsa-nursing-scholarship-notification-246047-9.html My understanding is that NELRP is for people that have already finished nursing school and have massive loans to pay off.

Nursing Education Loan Repayment Program 2007 Does anyone know a recipient of the NELRP? Just how much debt must I have? Do they only consider debt just while in nursing school or 4 years of undergrad (for traditional BSN programs)? What about people with debt from undergraduate programs now in 2nd degree accelerated BSN programs? I guess I'm debating if it is worth racking up the interest on huge loans with the hope of getting the scholarship or clearing out my bank account, taking out smaller loans, & living on nothing to pay for school now.
