¹ If qualified, selected, and employed by University of Iowa Health Care for 60 months of employment, University of Iowa Health Care will pay up to $26,250 toward your eligible, synced student loans in installments via the Clasp platform. If you do not begin employment because of failure to meet the requirements for hire (i.e. failure to gain licensure), if you choose to leave the Student Loan Repayment Program at any time, if you voluntarily leave employment for any reason, or are terminated from employment, you will be disqualified from the program and any loan repayment benefit facilitated through the program. You are responsible to pay any remaining outstanding amount. You are personally responsible for the financial obligations under your loan agreement(s). Any agreement between you and your employer is entirely separate from your loan obligation(s) and will not in any way offset your obligations to your lender unless payments are made by you or any other party on your behalf.
² You may be subject to income tax for some or all of the loan payments made by University of Iowa Health Care on your behalf. You should consult with a tax professional if you have any questions regarding tax consequences of the University of Iowa Health Care Student Loan Repayment Program.
