Hello All!
I just received acceptance to medical school yesterday after 4 years of applying. Beyond my expectation, I was also awarded a 4-year full tuition (no housing, fees, living costs, etc... though) scholarship also.
I'm also a current civilian employee with DoD (U.S. Army), and really thankful for the government job benefits like TSP, Pension, etc...
Is there any way to remain a federal employee while attending medical school, while receiving some kind of monthly stipend to support myself and the family? I wouldn't need tuition repayment since that is covered by the school. Since I'm married (and my wife does not work), I would have to support family's living costs. Thanks so much for your kind feedback. I greatly appreciate it.
