Where would I find scholarships/tuition assistance/replacement programs for Medical School?

For example, I know that there is a program that pays most if not all of a person's medical school tuition if they agree to practice in an underpriveliged area for a few years after medical school. I am very interested in that. There are also other programs that I have only heard about, that will offer grants, loans, and other assistance to medical students. One of my professors told me that there are numerous tuition assistance and scholarship programs available for med students that no one ever hears about. I'm sure she's right. Although, details tend to be sketchy, and I hear that these programs don't exactly advertise much or get the word out. You have to find them on your own.Any information would be much appreciated. Thank you!
Answers:
National Health Service Corps is what you heard about; however, they've had trouble with funding in recent years so investigate them fully.
Also check with your school's FA and admissions offices as well as your undergrad premed adviser.
Check out fastweb.com
Its a scholarship search that looks based on what you are interested in majoring in.
