Health Professions Scholarship Program (HPSP) advantages, disadvantages, military residency, tips on how to ace your interview, if it’s right for you, and what even is it ?! Everything you need to know in this video!!

What happens after medical school with residency?
1) Military residency – active duty benefits, time going towards active duty service commitment, working at a hospital on base or connected to the military
2) Civilian sponsored residency – active duty benefits, incurring additional years for active duty service commitment, this is at a civilian institution
3) Civilian deferred residency – no active duty benefits, no additional service commitment incurred, serve as an active duty physician upon finishing
4) General Medical Officer (GMO) – active duty benefits, primary care physician for a squadron, unit, or wing. Great experience, counts towards active duty service commitment. Great resume booster to reapply for residency.
5) Flight Surgeon (Air Force Only) – same as GMO but most likely PCP for a flying base or squadron.
6) Transitional Year/Intern Year– do an intern year at a base, then reapply for residency. If it is a transitional year required for a specialty like dermatology, then you complete it then go into your derm residency.

!!after residency training, you will serve your active duty service commitment!!
4 year scholarship=4 years active duty service commitment
3 year scholarship=3 year active duty service commitment
