Applying to PA programs after ROTC?


Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

Right now I am one year away from commissioning through ROTC (this is technically my senior year but I didn't join ROTC until my Sophomore year so I have to be a 5th year). I am also in the National Guard as an 11B (SMP CDT for 2 going on 3 years). Anyways, next semester I am going to be applying to PA schools around Michigan and I will also be throwing in my app towards IPAP. I am not worried about getting into PA school  (except maybe IPAP because I don't have very much time in service,) because I have a solid GPA, been working as an EMT and good letters of rec. My problem comes in with not knowing what is going to happen if I get into a civilian School. I plan on staying in the Guard and to my knowledge they took away the HPSP for PA which means that I will have to choose another MOS to commission into even if I get into PA school? Which doesn't make sense to me because after I graduate PA school they would have to re-class me again for 65D? It seems like a waste of money on the Guards part to send me through one BOLC after graduation then send me to another one after PA school... Can any elaborate or shed some light?

 

Thanks,

Humble thyself.

 

These stats MIGHT get you an interview, but your comment smells of arrogance...and that is as good as poison to adcoms in an interview...
