The Free Tuition Program offers physician applicants up to $40,000 (or $10,000 per year) in exchange for a three or four year return-of-service commitment. The program has two components : the reimbursement of medical undergraduate tuition fees and a location incentive fund. The Free Tuition Program will compensate medical students and postgraduate trainees for actual medical tuition payments (to a maximum of $10,000 annually), in exchange for a return-of-service commitment in a community designated as underserviced or an undersupplied specialty. The location incentive fund may provide tuition grant candidates with additional financial incentives to locate to approved communities if tuition is less than $10,000 per year. Please see the Free Tuition Program and Applications for the Free Tuition Program. Health Professionals Recruitment Tour
