Yes, you will get a reserve (green) military ID as an HPSP student, as well as an active duty Common Access Card if you want, during your 45 day of active duty time each year. You are actually required to have a military ID card. From the HPSP student handbook...
1-8. Identification Cards
1. While in the program, students are required to have a valid
Armed Forces Identification (ID) Card in their possession. This
card allows access to military facilities in order to use all
entitled privileges, such as the commissary and exchange.
2. New or Lost ID Cards: To obtain a new ID card or in the
event that a participant’s ID card is lost or stolen, contact
MDAD at (301)319-4529/32/34 or
[email protected]. MDAD will
forward a copy of the participant’s Oath of Office (if
HPSP/FAP/NADS) or DD Form 4 (if a Nurse Candidate) to the
participant. The participant must take the Oath of Office/DD
Form 4 to the nearest Military Personnel Support Detachment
(PSD) or ID card issuing facility to have the ID card issued.
At least one photo ID (passport, driver's license, etc.) is
required by the PSD or ID card issuing facility for verification
purposes prior to obtaining an ID. Participants should take two
with them when they go for a military ID card.
3. Dependent ID Cards: If dependent ID cards are required,
contact MDAD at (301)319-4529/32/34 or
[email protected].
The Accessions Department will forward a copy of the
participant’s Oath of Office (if HPSP/FAP/NADS) or DD Form 4 (if
a Nurse Candidate) to the participant. Participants should take
their marriage license and birth certificates for children (as
appropriate) along with the Oath of Office form to the nearest
Military PSD or ID card issuing facility to have the request for
a dependent ID card authorized. The participant should take the
dependent to the ID card facility if the intent is to leave with
an ID card in hand.
4. The nearest ID card issuing facility can be found using the
military's RAPIDS Site Locator website:
http://www.dmdc.osd.mil/rsl/owa/home. If unable to find a
facility, the participant may contact the MDAD Systems Section
via e-mail at
[email protected] or by phone at (301)319-
4529/32/34.
