How would I go about applying for a civilian residency as an HPSPer. I would like to do EM, then maybe radiology (but not near as much as EM). Therefore, the army has three real potential spots I care for. With the reputation of the military match process, I'm afraid I may not end up anywhere I would like. How does this work?
Would I apply for the three army EM spots, then two radiology, and if I don't get any of them, I then apply for a civilian residency or jump in the scramble somehow. (I'm not too familiar with this b/c I'm only a second year right now.) When you are applying army, do you then fill in spots as civlian as part of your five choices? Also, am i right in that there only five spots you can apply for when appyling for army residency? Can an army HPSPer apply for civilian residency and army at the same time so that if army does not work out, the army HPSPer isn't scerwed into a GMO, FP, or IM? Lastly, when in the year do HPSP students match compared to civilian students?
Please clue me in with whatever info you can offer.
Thanks.
