Doctoral students who are interested in teaching at a California State University may qualify for up to $30,000 in forgivable loans. The Chancellor's Doctoral Incentive Program provides loans to a limited number of students pursuing doctoral degrees at accredited universities throughout the United States.

The program is designed to increase the number of promising doctoral students who are interested in competing for future CSU instructional faculty positions. After participants receive their doctoral degrees and obtain a qualifying instructional position in the CSU, a portion of their loan from this program will be forgiven for each year of employment.

Additional details and applications are available online at http://www.calstate.edu/hr/cdip/index.shtm. Applicants do not need to be a CSU graduate to qualify for the forgivable loan. Applications are due Monday, Feb. 22.
