I remember reading here about people using their GI Bill benefits for fellowship or residency after separating. Any idea if this is possible during a deferred fellowship?
For example...3 years active duty residency after HPSP. I want to do a fellowship...options are:
1. in-service fellowship...move cross country for a year in a city I'm not thrilled to live in...add to my HPSP commitment
2. Sponsored fellowship...stay on active duty but add more time to my HPSP commitment
3. Deferred fellowship...no added commitment...but supporting a family of 5 on 55k/yr doesn't sound fun. With the GI bill adding onto that salary it becomes m a bit more palatable.
Is this possible or is it just for after separating from active duty?
Thanks
