Guys:
I have applied to Navy HPSP, will be starting at LMU-DCOM in the fall.
--I applied for HPSP
--Did my Navy physician interview
--Went to MEPS, had to get a waiver for migraines, still waiting on it to come through. Passed the physical.
I guess I'm starting to freak out because of the finances involved.
1) Are Navy HPSP medical scholarships still available? My recruiter seemed to believe they are but I wasn't convinced he knew 100%
2) How competitive is the scholarship these days? I know it used to be somewhat competitive but due to the doc shortage, my recruiter said that if you have a med school acceptance letter and make it through MEPS, you're golden. Is this fair to say?
3) Once your application is complete, how long does it take on average to get commissioned?
