Financial Assistance for Students

I HAVE STUDENT LOANS. DO YOU OFFER FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE?

Family Physicians, Family Medicine Residents in training, Registered Nurses, Licensed Practical Nurses, and Nurse Practitioners practicing in the Northwest Territories may be eligible for the Canada Student Loan Forgiveness program, a program offered through the Government of Canada to health care professionals working in rural and remote communities. All communities in the Northwest Territories are designated as rural and remote, based on the program guidelines. 

In addition, Northern students supported through the Student Financial Assistance Program (SFA) may be eligible for remissible loans if they live and work in the Northwest Territories after graduation.
