Georgia Board of Health Care Workforce FY27 loan-repayment sources currently conflict on the deadline: program pages state October 12, 2026 at 5:00 PM ET, while the FAQ states October 5, 2026 at 5:00 PM without a time zone. Atlas uses October 5 at 5:00 PM as the conservative cutoff pending GBHCW reconciliation.
Required next actionMaintain publication and new outreach hold until GBHCW reconciles its current FY27 deadline conflict. Continue planning against the earlier October 5, 2026 at 5:00 PM cutoff for already-engaged applicants, and do not represent October 12 as controlling unless the Board resolves the contradiction. Recheck the main program page, profession-specific page, FAQ, and current application before any applicant-specific work.
