The Minnesota Dentist Loan Forgiveness Program provides loan repayment assistance to dental students, residents, and licensed dentists who plan to provide at least 25% of annual patient encounters to state public program enrollees and/or patients receiving a sliding fee schedule in Minnesota.
Preference is given to applicants closest to completing their training and those who can demonstrate diverse cultural competencies. Students and residents must submit an application while completing their dental school or residency training.
Licensed dentists are eligible if they have remaining educational debt and their annual patient encounters include at least 25% state public program enrollees or patients on a sliding-fee schedule.
Up to $41,000 per year with a maximum of $164,000.
A link to the application guidelines and online portal is available on the program website.
