Health Professional Recruitment Program

The Health Professional Recruitment Program is an innovative loan repayment program for D.O., D.P.M., D.P.T., O.T.D. and PA graduates. HPRP can reduce student debt by up to $100,000 through state funding and community contributions. In return for four years of full-time service in an eligible rural community, Iowa College Aid may award up to $50,000 matched by the employer, hospital or community. State funds cover 25% of the benefit each year for four years. After completing the commitment you can continue practicing in the community or explore other opportunities.
