The State of Georgia offers several service cancelable loans for students who want to work in health care.
Students can borrow funds to attend school for Nursing, Dentistry, Nurse Anesthesia, and many other health-related fields.
Service cancelable repayment requirements vary with each program listed.
In the event that you do not complete your program and work in the field that you were awarded then your scholarship loan must be repaid in cash installments with interest.
Make sure to read the program details so you fully understand the requirements and your obligations.
