Go with your guts man. Don't just do it for the money. I gurantee that you will make good money and won't have any problem paying your loans back. This may be a good experience if you are willing to serve your country.[/QUOTE said:
200,000+ for school loans, plus another 300,000-500,000 to open up a practice thats like 2,500ish a month for 240 months or 20 years. A very large amount of debt, which will be even more if i wanted to buy a house. Deployment isnt so bad as i hear the non-combat commisioned officers (dentists, physicians, etc) stay in the far rear if they are attached to a combat group. Also, to reply to a previous post i doubt they get a high ranking officer at their disposal and groups to protect them because of their captain status becuase they cannot command combat troups. Bush is also talking of pulling troops out of iraq slowly...good news.
Anyone know if ur allowed to specialize if ur on this scholarship?
