I'm having a hard time deciding on pursuing the HPSP scholarship with either the army or the Air Force. On one hand, it's great that tuition is covered. However, if I'm being honest, the only reason why I am considering the scholarship is for the money. No other motivation.
I work with a few physicians who have advocated going the scholarship route bc of the rising cost of medical school loans alone. But I'm still concerned that I would only be pursuing the military out of fear of being in debt, more so than pursuing it because it is the route that I want to pursue.
Is anyone else also struggling with this? Are there current or past students who did the HPSP that could offer some advice?
The hardest part of this decision is finding actual people who have gone through this route and speaking with them about their experiences. Thank you in advance for your help!
