SECTION 30.140. Purpose  


Latest version.
  • The Outstanding Rural Scholar Recognition Program (ORSRP) is a competitive forgivable loan program which assists rural communities to sponsor students pursuing studies in health care professions that are needed in the rural community. ORSRP matches state funds with rural community funds to support a student of the community's choice in a health professional education program. In exchange for funds received from the rural community and ORSRP, the health care professional, upon licensure, returns to the sponsoring rural community to practice health care.
