I started this post in hopes of finding others that are on path to go to COT in 2015. It would be nice getting to know someone at COT. I just received/signed my acceptance letter from the AF for the HPSP as a midwife. I officially start my course wor...

Jmharrold: What program are you enrolled in and where?

It has been pretty much ok since I started in May of 2013. I am also in the 2 year program. HPSP seems to go smoothly once you've been commissioned. I have had no issues thus far. They were quick on paying my tuition and I received my first stipend p...

I was told that we do "gain rank" while we are in HPSP- We gain rank for our degree as well as our time as an RN. My recruiter said it's all formula based and he wasn't sure what rank I would have when I got out. What's your background story? How man...

Mullins- Is your recruiter stationed in Wright Pat? Sounds like mine!

Mickey- Thanks! My story is quite similar to yours, however I do not have prior service. My husband was a Ranger in the Army for 3 years and was d/c'd due to a injury. I have a BS in Business (Marketing/Communications) and a BSN. I went back and got ...

I am going to the University of Cincinnati. Where are you attending/applying?

Is there anyone on this board in the HPSP that will go to COT in 2015?

It is excruciatingly hard to get any info on the NP program. I'd love to hear what anyone knows about its competitiveness and anything you've heard regarding the board review. Also, do they take alternates for all the NP specialties? My application ...

Gabookworm- I am currently in te process of applying for the HPSP for Midwifery. My packet was board ready on the 17th of April just awaiting the board's decision. I can try to answer any questions you might have.

Thanks for the information CK.

Did you have your CEN prior to commissioning, or was this something you obtained after you got in?

That stinks. I know they'll cover your books, but do you have to buy them first and then they reimburse you? Or how does that work?

My recruiter is at Wright Pat. Close but not the same. Congrats!

Do you happen to know what's covered under the HPSP? I know books and tuition, but what about a computer? I am going to be in a distance learning program and my laptop's motherboard went out so I will need to buy a new one and I was just curious as t...

Are you going in as a specialty? Also where is your recruiter located? Mine is also new and I was just curious as to whether or not if we have the same one.

Melissa17036- Did you enter the Air Force through the HPSP? I thought I saw elsewhere where you posted something about that. If so I was just curious as to what all is covered under this program and how you received the fund. Thanks!
