| Ok man, first rule- do not go into the military in any way shape or form if don't want to. Live by that haha. The military is awesome, I'm going in myself, but if you don't have a desire , then you're going to be miserable, especially if your only reason is the financial benefits. To answer your question, yes right after 4 year college you would go into the military. Also, there IS Marine ROTC, but the marines don't have a medical branch-the medical branch for the marines is the NAVY, if you wanted to work with marines in a medical vocation-its NAVY for you. Now if the military IS something you want to do, There's a thousand paths you could take here. You could just go straight to med school on your own, then join. Or you could go to med school on an Amry Health Professions scholarship-which pays for med school, but reqquires time in the service. OR, you could go to USUHS-the military's med school. The difference is you get free tuition AND get paid whil you go to school-but, there's a much longer time requirement afterward (seven years). DO research on all that stuff and go with your gut. |
