Piece Description
In the current economic climate, paying for medical school is a daunting task for anyone. For most, the opportunity to graduate debt-free and even receive a stipend for living expenses is a hard one to pass up. But what if it comes at the price of a minimum of 4 years of active military service? That’s the premise of the Health Professions Scholarship Program. Emily Crawford and Kyle Crawford have more. From "Passport Troubles" (7/23/10).
