About The Position

Baptist Health Louisville’s Knowledge Program provides tuition funding to healthcare students pursuing a healthcare degree, in exchange for a commitment to work for Baptist Health Louisville or Baptist Health La Grange after graduation. Funding is forgiven as participants meet specified tenure milestones. The amount of funding depends on factors including the school, degree program, graduation date, career goals, and demonstrated financial need. Generally, participants must work for one year for every $10,000 in funding received. Applicants must have been accepted into or be actively enrolled in an applicable degree program before graduating in their field of study. Students taking prerequisite classes are generally not yet eligible. Current Baptist Health employees must be in good standing with respect to performance and attendance. The application requires a Knowledge Program survey, Baptist Health application, transcript showing current GPA, program acceptance letter, two recommendation letters (preferably from an employer or clinical instructor), and a one-page document describing planned use of the funding and post-graduation career plans. The application deadline is open, with a closing date to be announced later.
