HB 1234 -- NURSING STUDENT LOAN REPAYMENT PROGRAM (Loehner) COMMITTEE OF ORIGIN: Special Committee on Student Achievement and Finance This bill changes two provisions of the Nursing Student Loan Repayment Program. "Eligible student" is redefined as a person who has been accepted as a full-time nursing student, rather than a person who has applied for admission. Currently, 25% of the loan is forgiven for each year of employment; the bill revises the repayment provision to permit forgiveness through employment without mention of a specific schedule. FISCAL NOTE: No impact on state funds in FY 2007, FY 2008, and FY 2009.Copyright (c) Missouri House of Representatives
