Loan programs and debt statisticsOverview | Federal loan programs | State loan program | Institutional loan programs | Debt statistics | RepaymentState Loan ProgramMissouri PRIMO Loan: This is a forgivable loan offered by the state of Missouri. Recipients must be Missouri residents going into primary care. Selected students receive $20,000 per academic year. Applications from previous PRIMO recipients, individuals from rural or underserved areas and minority individuals are given priority. Upon completion of residency, recipients must serve in a defined need area of the state. The Missouri Department of Health designates defined need areas as those that are experiencing a shortage of comprehensive primary care providers. All funds received by PRIMO scholars accrue interest at the rate of 9.5 percent annually beginning from the date the check is issued. If a recipient does not fulfill his or her obligation, the loan must be repaid within 60 months. The deadline for application is June 30, for new applicants.
