Hi all -
I was just accepted off of the waitlist into USUHS and am really torn about going for a number of reasons - the main one of which is personal. I am in my mid 34's, single and female and really want to be get married and have a family in addition to my career. But I understand that 60% of the incoming students are already married with kids and certainly the rigors of the program are not going to allow for a whole lot of extra-curricular searching for a partner, especially one who will adapt to the military lifestyle.
As trivial as this may sound, family is very important to me , as is medicine - and I do not want to sacrifice one over the other. Any insight and feedback would be tremendously helpful as I have to give me decision ASAP!
Thank you!
