    (a) Student borrower. An eligible student may borrow an amount to be 
used solely for expenses, as described in Sec. 60.5(g), incurred or to 
be incurred over a period of up to an academic year and disbursed in 
accordance with Sec. 60.33(f). The maximum amount he or she may receive 
for that period shall be determined by the school in accordance with 
Sec. 60.51(f) within the following limitations:
    (1) A student enrolled in a school of medicine, osteopathic 
medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine, optometry or podiatric 
medicine may borrow up to $80,000 under this part. The amount received

allied health may borrow up to $50,000 under this part. The amount 
received may not exceed $12,500 per academic year.
    (3) For purposes of this paragraph, an academic year means the 
traditional approximately 9-month September-to-June annual session. For 
the purpose of computing academic year equivalents for students who, 
during a 12-month period, attend for a longer period than the 
traditional academic year, the academic year will be considered to be 9 
months in length.
    (4) The student's estimated cost of attendance shall not exceed the 
estimated cost of attendance of all students in like circumstances 
pursuing a similar curriculum at that school.
    (b) Non-student borrower. An eligible nonstudent may borrow amounts 
under this authority with the following restrictions:
    (1) In no case may an eligible nonstudent borrower receive a loan 
that is greater than the sum of the HEAL insurance premium plus the 
interest that is expected to accrue and must be paid on the borrower's 
HEAL loans during the period for which the new loan is intended.
    (2) An eligible nonstudent in the field of medicine, ostepathic 
medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine, optometry, or podiatric 
medicine may borrow up to $80,000 under this part including loans 
obtained while the borrower was a student. The loan amount may not 
exceed $20,000 in any 12-month period.
    (3) An eligible nonstudent in the field of pharmacy, public health, 
chiropractic, health administration, or clinical psychology may borrow 
up to $50,000 under this part including loans obtained while the 
borrower was a student. The loan amount received under this part may not 
exceed $12,500 in any 12-month period.
