hpsp air force

Hey everyone, I’m a first-year Air Force HPSP student, and my girlfriend is a second-year civilian med student. We’re both unsure of our exact specialties but are highly considering Family Medicine. We’re trying to figure out if we can realistically make our relationship work through residency...

I am an incoming med student applying to the HPSP scholarship. My recruiter has told me not to worry about my credit history. However, I am reading everywhere that a credit check will be performed. I was in a bad place in life and had accumulated 10k in collections from 6 years ago. These are...

Hi, I'm going to try to keep this from being super long-winded but dunno how well I'll do. I really appreciate any feedback after reading since this is a big crossroads for me. I am currently waist-deep in the HPSP application process through the Air Force. To get it out of the way, my primary...

That I can “only proceed with one branch at a time” for HPSP. This sounds like BS…do I just tell him I haven’t decided yet and want to pursue both AF and Navy?

I've been in contact with recruiters about the HPSP scholarship and was wondering if I can apply to more than one branch (or all three) at the same time? I've heard that you can apply to all three, and if you're accepted to more than one then you can choose which branch you'd like to enter. I...

So, I know that there are probably other threads out there where I could find the answers I'm looking for if I did some digging, but I'm looking for recent answers to just a couple questions so I'mma go ahead a create a new thread, (1) When should I apply to HPSP (or I guess reach out to a...

I am divided between NYU and Buffalo. I am from brooklyn so I can stay home and commute which is 1 hour to an hour and 15 minutes. If I stay in buffalo then I save commuting time but I will live by myself so have to do cooking and other chores. NYU Pros: - GET HPSP and save $450,000 tuition and...

Hello Hello, I currently work in a government position so I found It natural to think about getting an MPH while in medical school. Specifically, an MPH with a global health focus or an MS in global health. I also want to learn multiple languages (studying Arabic now, fluent in Spanish). I...

Does anyone have experience with the 2 year HPSP scholarship? I know the Air Force pretty much makes you do the AEGD (which doesn’t count towards the payback) then you owe 3 years of service. So 4 years total. I go to a pretty pricey Dental school. I’m looking at about $500k in debt when I...

Hello, I also am really keen on being a physician-pilot because I love aviation and medicine but have no idea how to do so. I am set on becoming a doctor first so I was thinking about joining the Navy on HPSP (I went through MEPS with them already but haven't signed anything) and then becoming...

Hello all! Is there anyone on here that has done the military HPSP to pay for vet school, or know anything about this scholarship? Is it just the Army that offers this or is it Air Force as well? And can anyone speak to the number of years of service this requires after graduation and how many...

Hey everyone! I was looking into the HPSP, for dental school and I was wondering if the actual height/weight requirements for the army/navy/air force also applied to recipients of the HPSP. Let's just say that I'm a fair amount higher than the maximum weight limit for my height... I was...

Hello all, I am currently a dental student on the Air Force HPSP Scholarship. I am about to start my 3rd year of dental school and I am looking to cross over into the Navy HPSP program, as my spouse is active duty Navy, and co-location will be difficult AF-Navy. I have heard that it can be...

I'm new to this site and currently in high school planning for my future. I know I have a lot of time to decide these things, but I'd like to have a general idea about it now. I wish to be a pediatrician in the air force, and I have a lot of questions. 1. How often do pediatricians get...

Hello, I am a 3-year HPSP scholarship recipient via the Air Force and as such I am required to apply/accept an Air Force AEGD position. I understand that there can be some variability due to the different needs of each of the AEGD bases but I was wondering what I should be expecting in terms of...

Hey all, I'm interested in more insight about attending PCOM using Air Force HPSP and/or post 9-11 GI Bill resources. Please PM me with your experience. Thank you :)

Hi everyone, I am a first year medical student and am on the fence about joining the 3 year Air Force HPSP program. The financial benefit is not a huge concern for me and, in fact, I found that most civilian doctors typically make more money than members in the HPSP program in the long run. A...

I am planning on submitting early for both Air Force and Navy HPSP. I have a 3.80 GPA and a 22 DAT score. I am posting this to see what you guys think my chances are on getting the scholarship. Obviously I know that there are many other factors that are involved in getting the scholarship too.

I was wondering if you could get 20 “good” years in less than 20 years? If so what can I do to get enough points to make this happen? I actually don’t care about the money of retirement I just want to retire fast. AF hpsp

Hi All, My MEPS appointment is on Tuesday and I just has a few questions on how MEPS will be. I have Invisalign and I'm worried that I will get DQ for it. Is this true or am I just freaking out. Thanks so much for all the replies!

4 Year HPSP Army Scholarship- I was accepted a couple weeks ago. Scroll came in. I was accepted into a 3 calendar year dental school starting this summer 2018. Is it possible to apply my 4 year scholarship to this 3 year school?

Hello, I will be applying to dental school in June, 2018. I have been attempting to reach out to AF HPSP recruiters at both the Bellevue, NE and Naperville, IL recruiting stations. After leaving messages many times over several months, I have still yet to be contacted by a recruiter for the...

Anyone have any experience/insight into the air force HPSP? I know it's competitive, but how competitive? Anyone with their stats that got in/rejected? Any insight or advice is appreciated.

Hello! I am a first year dental student selected for the 3yr HPSP scholarship through the Air Force and I'm still waiting for my scroll to be approved so I can commission. I was hoping to figure out if my monthly stipend begins as soon as I commission or if I have to wait until next semester...
