D.O/D.M.D with HPSP?

[alpha2716]

Nova has a program to get a D.O and a D.M.D that last 6 years. I want to be a Oral Surgeon. Can I do the 6 year program, do my 4 year oral surgery residency, and payback 6 years to the military.

HPSP will not pay for dual degree programs. Did you really have to post the same question on three threads?

From what I remember about the NSU duel degree is geared to people that want to work in very rural areas where they will essentially be the one and only option for medicine or dental work. I don't think it's supposed to be a short cut to oral surgery.

Definately not a short-cut to OMFS.as one will still need 4-6 yrs after dental school.And for the medical part 3-God knows how many years for residency.But dont we all love to be multi-talented
