ERHD Program – Recognizing “Gainful Employment Disclosure” status

No comments

The Ethnic and Rural Health Disparities Program at ECU wants to officially inform all visitors that our program is on the federal listing as a Title IV eligible certificate program. What this means is that qualified graduate professionals who are accepted into the program NOW have more options to finance their courses. Financing for this program may be available through grants, scholarships, loans (federal and private) and institutional financing plans.

Here is the link to the Gainful Employment Disclosure statement.

If you have any additional inquiry regarding our Gainful Employment Disclosure statement or Title IV eligible certificate program status, please do not hesitate to contact me at: baileye@ecu.edu

ERHD Program – Approved by U.S. Department of Education

No comments

Recently, I was notified from ECU administrators that our Ethnic and Rural Health Disparities (ERHD) program was officially approved by the U.S. Department of Education on December 31, 2014 to be listed on the Eligibility and Certification Approval Report (ECAR) for programs in which graduate students can seek student loans to take our courses if needed. This is a major accomplishment for our ERHD program because it not only recognizes our Graduate Certificate Program as an official nationally recognized program but it also provides graduate professionals even more financial opportunity to take our academically approved courses.

We want to give our special THANKS to the ECU Administrators for supporting our ERHD program as well as ECU’s Department of Public Health – MPH Program – for continuing to list our courses within their program.
