To all who would know.
Does anyone have an idea as to how the New GI bill will affect those who will be entering medical school with HSCP on 2009. I understand that the new GI Bill goes into effect August 2009 when I am hoping I will be entering medical school. I am in Texas and am prior service so I calculated that HSCP would be best for me. In HSCP, they pay you E-6/E-7 salary and you pay for medical school out of pocket. With the new GI Bill, tuition is paid directly to the institution and one is eligible for it after just 90 days active (at 40% rate and higher as you add more days active). I know with the old GI, you could start getting GI money after 2 years on HSCP or get the GI money during residency.... I am just wondering if anyone has more information considering both the new GI and medical HSCP are both fairly new.
