What is the possibility of getting student loans paid off for a master's degree that is a qualifying degree for a new assession? https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/student-loan-repayment-multiple-degrees-and-qualifying-degree-loans <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>The job I was selected for can be filled by individuals who have a master&#39;s or a PhD, the starting rank of the new accession is dependent on which degree they have. <br /><br />I happen to have both degree types, but the rub is that I took out loans during my master&#39;s but not my PhD and would like to see if master&#39;s loans are &quot;qualifying&quot;.<br /><br />Does anyone have experience with the possibility of getting loans paid off for this type of situation? The master&#39;s degree is technically a &quot;qualifying&quot; degree for some individuals. <br /><br />I have undergraduate degree loans as well, but I doubt it is possible to finesse those.

Health Professionals Loan Repayment Program? Something else?).<br /><br />The rules about the different programs can be found in AR 621-202*. In GENERAL, for the Health Professional programs, &quot;qualifying loans&quot; are loans for the first degree that qualified the officer for the AOC which they were commissioned. In other words, if a Masters in XXXX was required, then loans from a Doctorate in XXXX wouldn&#39;t be qualifying.<br /><br />As I said, in GENERAL. However, your best answer will come from an AMEDD recruiter as the specific eligibility, AOCs that qualify, amounts, etc. could change.<br />---------------------------------------------------------<br />* AR 621-202 (Army Educational Incentives and Entitlements) - <a target="_blank" href="https://armypubs.army.mil/epubs/DR_pubs/DR_a/ARN31582-AR_621-202-000-WEB-1.pdf">https://armypubs.army.mil/epubs/DR_pubs/DR_a/ARN31582-AR_621-202-000-WEB-1.pdf</a> <div class="pta-link-card answers-template-image type-default"> <div class="pta-link-card-picture"> </div> <div class="pta-link-card-content"> <p class="pta-link-card-title"> <a target="blank" href="https://armypubs.army.mil/epubs/DR_pubs/DR_a/ARN31582-AR_621-202-000-WEB-1.pdf">ARN31582-AR_621-202-000-WEB-1.pdf</a> </p> <p class="pta-link-card-description"></p> </div> <div class="clearfix"></div> </div> COL Randall C.
