Will an HPSP student who starts an SSRI for depression lose their scholarship?
I should hope not. Half the DoD is on an SSRI. If stable, well-managed, well-controlled, shouldn't be a problem.Will an HPSP student who starts an SSRI for depression lose their scholarship?
The recruiter my school contacted to ask on behalf of HPSP students seeking mental health made it sound a little foreboding.
Quote from the email:
"I was informed that the Students have a POC they can reach out to at the OTSG level. I think they should at least speak to them to discuss what's going on. We, as the recruiter are not
provided details on this matter. The POC will go over everything with them and will have more information than us.
If they are worried about possibly being removed from the HPSP Scholarship, they should first try reaching out to Military One Source."

Then he said keeping the scholarship is on a case-by-case basis. He also said we could contact the Detachment Officer at 256-450-9600.
