I have a bit of a dilemma and couldn't find a good answer after searching through many threads. I am currently accepted to the dentistry Navy HPSP and will commission this summer after graduating.
I decided to start informal counseling through my school's student services without any sort of diagnosis for depression, and I'm considering seeing a psychiatrist as well. When I completed MEPS nine months ago, I truthfully indicated that I had never been diagnosed or treated for any mental health disorders.
Am I at risk of having my scholarship revoked since I haven't commissioned? Do I need to let my recruiter know about all of this? What if I get an official diagnosis or start on medication? Then do I let my recruiter know? This is a unique situation because I understand that during HPSP and active duty you can get treatment, but I haven't commissioned yet and only have a final select letter.
