How do the medical programs in the military work?

I've heard that the military (Army and Navy branches, that I know off) have medical programs in which you can become a doctor with them or something of the sort. I would like to learn more about this and how they work and the like since I've considered joining the military as it is. I am currently planning on pursuing a medical degree but was wondering which route is more effective (if it does work the way I've been told it does). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!!How do the medical programs in the military work?you must get the degree on your own time and dime first. Then apply for a Direct Commission.





exception is Nurse Option ROTC.



while yes there are LIMITED scholarships available for those seeking the graduate degrees required for Medical Corps, they are few and far between. you do need the undergrad degree in hand first before you are even eligible to apply.How do the medical programs in the military work?If you're willing to do the time it's worth it. You'll walk away without having to pay for school in fact they pay you while you're in school and you'll be racking up time in the military. And even if you have to pay out of pocket for pre-reqs you'll be eligible for student loan repayments after you graduate. Programs are intense and accelerated and the selection board is very competitive.
