A brief description of the incentives or programs:

Forgivable loans are offered to eligible employees seeking housing in select neighborhoods close to the campus. Employees who purchase a home as a primary residence in one of the eligible neighborhoods will receive the lesser of five percent (5%) of the home’s purchase price or six thousand dollars ($6,000) to be used for points, closing costs, or down payment assistance toward the purchase of a home. The loan is forgiven if the employee remains in the home for five years.
