    HSCP a no brainer for prior service?

    Hi all, I'm currently on active duty (non-medical) and working on a post bac with the intention of going to medical school. From everything I have read and know about myself, I will be much happier on the military side of the house. It's been a great experience for me these past years that I...

    3 Year HSCP?

    Hey all, I was considering HSCP but my recruiter said that it was too late to apply (halfway through my first year). However, I had seen that there was both a 3 and 3 year option in online info. Wouldn't the 3 year option for MS2-4 with a 3 year ADT repayment be an option? Thanks!

    HSCP with Full Ride

    Hey all, I would really like to serve for a period with the Navy in military medicine at some point in my career. I was accepted for USUHS and HPSP but was then offered a full ride to Wayne State which seemed too good to pass up. I am now debating between taking HSCP during medical school to...

    HCSP or take on loans with no scholarship??

    Hello all, Looking for advice! I have an opportunity to quickly act on getting a 4-year HCSP scholarship with the Navy. Unfortunately, it is too late for me to pursue HPSP, which I know would be the better option in my case, but I'm still wondering if this is an opportunity I should take...

    Navy TSP Matching Contributions

    This is a question for current practicing military dentists or current HSCPers. I know that most service members used to not get a match on the TSP contributions (per the attached document dated January 2016), but recently the Army has been matching up to 5% as some sort of a trial program. Are...

    Navy HSCP Requirements

    I was recently accepted to medical school as part of a pre-acceptance partnership between my undergraduate school and the medical school. I wanted to pursue military medicine, but I found out I will not qualify for the HPSP since I will not have earned my bachelors when I start med school (I...

    Pay during ADSO if you've done a residency

    I'm looking for a few clarifying details, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. My questions are specific to the Navy, though I suspect that the answers are the same for all branches. Example A: Student on HSCP or HPSP graduates from dental school and goes right into 2-year Endo program (or...

    Years in Residency Count Towards PSLF?

    So, I think I've been able to determine that the years spent in dental school don't count for PSLF while on HPSP and even not while on HSCP, despite being "Active Duty." On the attached sheet, which is the Public Service Employment Certification form, under the Military section, it says...

    Navy HSCP - Referral Promotion from E6 to E7

    Hello, Now that I've been selected for the HSCP program, my main priority is to get promoted from E6 to E7 by referring someone who accesses into one of the medical programs. It's a difference of almost $19,000 (after taxes) over the course of dental school. I'm hoping to get some feedback or...

    HSCP - years in dental school count for PSLF?

    Question: If one takes federal loans while on the HSCP and also makes at least minimum payments while in dental school on said loans, does that count for four years of the required 10 years for the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program? So, in effect, one could be get the HSCP, pay loans...

    HSCP and Residency years towards active duty?

    I've been looking through a lot of the posts here, but the topic of how the years in residency count/don't count towards AD hasn't really come up much. According to what I read on some posts it seems that HSCP gives you 4 years that count towards the 20 during medical school. I'm not sure about...
