The Civil Legal Assistance Attorney Student Loan Repayment Program was established to encourage qualified individuals to enter and continue employment as civil legal assistance attorneys. Under the Civil Legal Assistance Attorney Student Loan Repayment Program, an eligible student loan borrower, with one or more eligible loans, may receive up to $6,000 in student loan repayment for each year of completed service up to an aggregate total of $40,000. Loan repayment commitments are limited to the amount appropriated for the program for a given fiscal year by the Congress and are only available to eligible applicants until those funds are fully committed. Therefore, awards under this program will be available to eligible borrowers on a first-come/first-served basis.
