This message has been approved by Beth Hodges, Director of FSU Research Development, for distribution to faculty and staff.

Did you know that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) will help pay back your student loans?

You’re invited to an in-depth overview of the NIH Loan Repayment Program from the Division of Loan Repayment Director, Matthew Lockhart. The NIH Loan Repayment Programs (LRPs) are a set of programs established by Congress designed to recruit and retain highly qualified health professionals into biomedical or biobehavioral research centers. The NIH LRPs pay up to $50,000 annually of qualified educational debt in return for a commitment to engage in NIH mission-relevant research. 

Applicants must hold an M.D., Ph.D., Psy.D., Pharm.D., D.O., D.D.S., D.M.D., D.P.M, D.C., N.D., O.D., D.V.M., or equivalent doctoral-level degree (except for the Contraception & Infertility Research LRP). The NIH LRPs will accept applications from Sept. 1 - Nov. 16. Don’t miss your opportunity to learn how you could receive up to $100,000 in educational debt relief!

Register here for our webinar on Tuesday, Aug. 1 from 3 - 4 pm. You may submit questions in advance when you register.
