Financial Aid

To apply for financial aid, you'll need to complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The federal code for the University of Kansas Medical Center is 001948. Contact the financial aid office if you have questions at 913-588-5170 or FinancialAid@kumc.edu.

The Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) Program forgives the remaining balance on your Direct Loans after you have made 120 qualifying monthly payments under a qualifying repayment plan while working full-time for a qualifying employer. Borrowers only have to make income-based loan repayments for 10 years and then any remaining balance is forgiven (provided you work in government or non-profit).

The National Institutes of Health will repay up to $35,000 in student loans each year for MD, PhD or other post-doctoral students who qualify (you must be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident).

Campus Employment

  • Federal Student work-study positions are available for those who meet the criteria. Please contact the Student Financial Aid Office for more information.
  • Both KU Medical Center and KU Hospital post job openings on their respective Human Resources websites.
