Hello all, I am a recently graduated from undergrad with an Army ROTC scholarship. I have been offered a HPSP scholarship to attend medical school. My undergraduate scholarship was for 4 years of active duty time after commissioning. I know that the HPSP scholarship is a one to one per year...

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 have been scouring the threads for a couple of days now, and finally decided the best approach was to lay out my situation and see what you guys think/have to say. I am 18 and in my senior year of high school, applying to colleges. I am sure that I want to be a doctor and go to med...

**NOT the Medical Corps** I realize this is slightly off-topic. (I'll do some push-ups) Has anyone gone the ROTC route to Medical Service Corps? 1. How competitive was it to get into the MSC? 2. Insight into your job and duties? AD / NG / AR. 3. Is there time to pursue higher education, as...

Hi, I originally posted this in the combined degree forum but was told I may have better luck here, I am currently a pre-med student looking into combined degree programs. I am looking at MD/MBA or MD/MHA, but for this question, the combination of degrees is largely irrelevant. I am also an Army...

Hi, I am currently a pre-med student looking into combined degree programs. I am looking at MD/MBA or MD/MHA, but for this question, the combination of degrees is largely irrelevant. I am also an Army National Guard Soldier and a ROTC cadet signed to the GRFD contract. I am looking at...

My freshmen year I attended PennState Berks campus which did not have AFROTC and therefore it deemed problematic for my wanted military career. However, my university offers an "early change of campus (ecoc)" request (very RARE to get approved), that I utilized under the real excuse "Berks...

So I'm a graduating senior now who wants to become an orthodontist. I've wanted to become this for years for various reasons. I know becoming an orthodontist is extremely competitive so I'm attending the Citadel, which is the military college of South Carolina next semester. The Citadel is...

That's about it.

I recently received a 3 year AROTC scholarship, and I have a few questions to ask. Is it correct that after ROTC I will own the Army 8 years of service? If I choose to attend a medical school (non HSPS) and pay for it on my own, then complete internship and residency with the Army, would that...

I am currently a high school senior who is going to likely be offered an ROTC scholarship to help pay for my undergrad tuition. I also want to become a Radiologist, and I have been looking into one of the medical programs the air force has to offer, but what I've found is that any service...

Hello! So I have read many preceding threads on this topic, but I have a different scenario I need some advice on. Also, some of the posts I read were pretty dated, so I want to make sure I have accurate information. Any input would be tremendously appreciated! A few weeks ago I was...

Anyone know if disclosing a diagnosis of Aspergers necessarily excludes you from college ROTC and/or later military service? I'm providing an intervention in a local high school to individuals on the ASD spectrum and one of them is in the process of applying to colleges. He's also long been...

I am a high school junior concerned about how I am going to pay for college and possibly med school, my ultimate goal. I just don't want to be paying off student loan debt for the rest of my life. I thought about the Air National Guard for undergrad but I'm worried about being deployed during...

So I'm in the AFROTC program at my university. I want to go to medical school, but I wanted to serve my four year commitment before hand. I'm currently a biology major, and hoping to work as a laboratory technician or scientist of some sort. Would I be at a disadvantage going to medical school...

So I'm a Junior at a decently tough pre-med school (Rutgers), I am also in Rutgers, and my major is Cell Biology/Neuroscience. Now, I am pre-med, and I've been pre-med for the past 2 years, and things aren't looking so good at the moment. I've done poorly in my pre-med classes, other than 1 A in...

Hello, I need some advice on my future and any help would be appreciated, thanks. So I am in ROTC right now as a Junior with no military obligation yet, but I will have to go through an extra year of school to get my undergrad because of so many credit hours if I want to do ROTC or I could drop...

I'm currently in Air Force ROTC and will be serving my four year service commitment after I graduate. My question is what kind of job will I be able to get during active duty. I'm majoring in biology and minoring in neuroscience? Will I be working in a lab in a base, or will I be doing admin...

I am entering my second year in aerospace engineering at a primarily technical/engineering university. I am also entering my second year of ROTC. I have decided to change my major and follow the pre-med route. Is it worth it to stay in ROTC? I am torn because I enjoy the program, but I am aware...

Hi all, This is my first post on the site, but let me tell you about my situation. I am currently going into my 3rd year in Aerospace Engineering, and also have a minor in Military Science and Leadership because I am Army ROTC, pursuing an active duty commission. I have always thought about...

Hi, I've seen one post about an Army ROTC student interested in psychology but I'm not sure if it answers my question. I'm actually starting ROTC late, as I have just finished my freshman year at undergraduate school and I'm currently pre-enrolled in the program to graduate as an officer in...

Hi Everyone, I'm a sophomore biomed and neuroscience double major at uni. I've thought about the military for a long time and only recently begun looking into my school's AROTC program. I am also on a premed track, looking to attend medical school. I've done a lot of research and talked to the...
