I think I might want to get a NHSC scholarship/loan, but only D2 and D3 students are eligible to apply so I still have a lot of time to decide since I will be a D1. I believe they pay for your tuition and you get to choose an undeserved area and work there for 2 years. Does anyone have any knowledge or experiences concerning the NHSC loan repayment program? I couldn't really find anything through search.
I also think it would be a great opportunity for me to get as much practice as possible as a fresh grad since I figure it would be difficult to get a good associate position immediately after graduation w/o a general practice residency and no experience whatsoever, but this is just an assumption. Following my 2 years of service, I figure I could go into a group practice and eventually have my own place. At least that is the plan for now.
