Faculty and staff who are selected will have to sign a professional development agreement obligating them to continue employment for a period equal to the length of their program (for example, a two-year program will result in a two-year obligation). If an applicant does not complete a program or has delayed completion, he/she will be obligated to maintain employment for a period equal to the time enrolled in the program. The obligation period will include any Leave of Absence time taken during the program. If a faculty or staff member leaves before fulfilling the employment obligation, he/she will be required to reimburse our institution for the entire amount of tuition that was waived.
If a student takes longer to complete the program and pays for the continuance credits themselves, then this time is not factored into the time owed the medical school.
