Every year the Army selects over 300 individuals to receive a scholarship to attend a medical school of their choice and become an Army Officer. You would be able to attend the medical school of your choice on a full scholarship (no tuition cap), receive an officer commission while attending school, and a stipend of $2,400 per month. MEDICAL SCHOOL COURSE WORK WILL NOT BE INTERRUPTED BY ARMY OBLIGATION. Your scholarship payback when out of training is one year of service for each year of medical school. You’ll enter as an Officer, meaning you will not participate in Basic Training. Instead, you’ll attend the Officer Basic Course, an orientation to Army Health Care.
As a student, you'll also receive:
* Monthly stipend of more than $2,400 per month
* Officer's pay for 45 days during academic breaks
* Reimbursement for books, laboratory equipment and academic fees
Upon graduation, benefits will include:
* Begin your career DEBT FREE
* Paid continuing education
* Member of the Profession of Arms – A fellowship of values, pride, tradition, and history found nowhere else!
* 30 days of paid vacation earned annually
* Non-contributory retirement benefits with 20 years of qualifying service
* No-cost or low-cost medical and dental care for you and your family
* Flexible, portable retirement savings and investment plan similar to a 401(k)
* Commission as a Medical Corps captain
