The total amount of student loan repayment can range from $15,000 to $120,000, depending on the type of provider.

Due to changes as a result of the 2025 legislative session the types of providers eligible to participate in the program was expanded. The list of providers who are eligible to receive student loan repayment can be found HERE.
