UMass Dartmouth joins Scholars Network
UMass Dartmouth is partnering with Scholars Network, which is designed to create direct, lower-debt pathways into high-need clinical careers.
Students can apply to work at a participating health system in the network and receive generous student loan repayment support if accepted. This is in exchange for a post-graduation work commitment.
UMass Dartmouth will deliver academic and clinical training while employees provide financial support and a direct line to employment, ensuring that students can pursue and complete their education with less debt and enter the workforce in roles that are already secured and aligned with health system needs.
“Through this partnership with Scholars Network, UMass Dartmouth is expanding access to high-quality nursing education while directly promoting affordability for our students,” said Uloma Onubogu, Assistant Dean of Online Learning at UMass Dartmouth. “By connecting our academic programs with meaningful employer support and clear career pathways, we are not only preparing students for clinical success, but ensuring they can enter the workforce with less debt and greater confidence in their future.”
This partnership aims to help both the shortage in the healthcare workforce and help to attract and retain students.
