Questa Scholars plan to join the Northeast Indiana workforce after graduation, helping to build the talent pool and the community.

Questa Education Foundation’s one-of-a-kind funding provides the possibility of receiving loan forgiveness up to 75% of the total loan amount. When scholars live and work in Northeast Indiana for five years after graduation, 50% of their loans are forgiven.  Students can receive another 25% forgiveness by attending a regional partner school. This incentive for scholars to live and work in Northeast Indiana helps businesses and economy grow and benefit from talent retention. Of the students who have graduated from the program, nearly 75% are giving back their talent by living and working in the region.

Questa cannot serve students without the support of donors and funders. Find out more about its programs and how you can support a student at www.questafoundation.org or call 260-407-6494.
