La Fiera said:for those waiting to hear, those of us who were offered the scholarship have until the 7th of september to accept it.

Any other alternates get good news!?!?
Thanks for the (soul) help!

melvin said:Hey Folks,
Just wanted to let all of the alternates out there know that I just received a letter via e-mail that I am off the waitlist and have received the scholarship. My paper letter will be sent out Friday. Best of luck!!

as for the financial planning, i've always believed that you go to the best school you get into...regardless of costs (there is plenty of loan money for future physicians)

docmartin said:Once you find out whether or not you got the scholarship, usually in November, you have a week or so to decide.
You can opt to receive the scholarship for a minimum of 2 yrs. So for those not sure about primary care, it's only a 2 yr commitment, but it is their hope that you will stay in that rural/urban area.
once I finish my obligation, I have the option to subspecialize.

voltron77 said:If any of you have any questions on the NHSC, please post your questions here and I will do my best to answer them as a current scholarship recipient. Good luck everyone and happy holidays to everyone!
